kthread: introduce to_live_kthread()

"k->vfork_done != NULL" with a barrier() after to_kthread(k) in
task_get_live_kthread(k) looks unclear, and sub-optimal because we load
->vfork_done twice.

All we need is to ensure that we do not return to_kthread(NULL).  Add a
new trivial helper which loads/checks ->vfork_done once, this also looks
more understandable.
