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.
