rcu/kvfree: Fix data-race in _modtimer / kvfreecallrcu
KCSAN reports a data race when access the krcp->monitorwork.timer.expires variable in the scheduledelayedmonitorwork() function:

kfreercumonitor() rearms the work if a "krcp" has to be still offloaded and this is done without holding krcp->lock, whereas the kvfreecallrcu() holds it.
Fix it by acquiring the "krcp->lock" for kfreercumonitor() so both functions do not race anymore.
