This move is the beginning of a new plan, in view in particular to limit the influence of Black' s Bishops on the Queenside.

[ 22...Bc4
X80 is stronger because, after the exchange: 23.Nxc4

X82 the c4-Knight causes to White more troubles than the Bishop.]

X86 25.e4
+/=
It is not difficult to explain why Kramnik owns here an excellent position, as reveals an attentive examination:
i) White pawn-structure is perfect!
ii) White has a pair of bishops and this ones are effectively set up.
iii) The c7-pawn is a bachward one and if Black playes it the d8-square falls under White control.
iv) White is in good conditions to take the control of the open d-file.

31...Re7

Finally Kramnik decides to place his Queen at the head and this is not a bad choice.
