struct ucc_geth_info is somewhat large, and on systems with only one
or two UCC instances, that just wastes a few KB of memory. So
allocate and populate a chunk of memory at probe time instead of
initializing them all during driver init.

Note that the existing "ug_info == NULL" check was dead code, as the
address of some static array element can obviously never be NULL.

Could we use dev_kmalloc() instead, to avoid the freeing on the wait out and the err_free_info: path ?

Perhaps, but I don't think mixing ordinary kmalloc() with devm_ versions
in the same driver is a good idea - IIRC there are at least some rules
to obey if one does that, but I don't remember and can't find what they are.
