x86/alternatives: Make smp_text_poke_batch_process() subsume smp_text_poke_batch_finish()

Simplify the alternatives interface some more by moving the
poke_batch_finish check into poke_batch_process and renaming the latter.
The net effect is one less function name to consider when reading the
code.
