rv: Fix wrong type cast in enabled_monitors_next()

Browse source 
Argument 'p' of enabled_monitors_next() is not a pointer to struct
rv_monitor, it is actually a pointer to the list_head inside struct
rv_monitor. Therefore it is wrong to cast 'p' to struct rv_monitor *.

This wrong type cast has been there since the beginning. But it still
worked because the list_head was the first field in struct rv_monitor_def.
This is no longer true since commit 24cbfe18d5 ("rv: Merge struct
rv_monitor_def into struct rv_monitor") moved the list_head, and this wrong
type cast became a functional problem.

Properly use container_of() instead.

Fixes: 24cbfe18d5 ("rv: Merge struct rv_monitor_def into struct rv_monitor")
