rethook: Use __rcu pointer for rethook::handler

Since the rethook::handler is an RCU-maganged pointer so that it will
notice readers the rethook is stopped (unregistered) or not, it should
be an __rcu pointer and use appropriate functions to be accessed. This
will use appropriate memory barrier when accessing it. OTOH,
rethook::data is never changed, so we don't need to check it in
get_kretprobe().

NOTE: To avoid sparse warning, rethook::handler is defined by a raw
function pointer type with __rcu instead of rethook_handler_t.
