kthread: rename probe_kthread_data() to kthread_probe_data() 

Patch series "kthread: Kthread worker API improvements"

The intention of this patchset is to make it easier to manipulate and
maintain kthreads.  Especially, I want to replace all the custom main
cycles with a generic one.  Also I want to make the kthreads sleep in a
consistent state in a common place when there is no work.

This patch (of 11):

A good practice is to prefix the names of functions by the name of the
subsystem.

This patch fixes the name of probe_kthread_data().  The other wrong
functions names are part of the kthread worker API and will be fixed
separately.
