of_platform_serial_probe() invokes of_platform_serial_setup() with a
kmalloc'd struct of_serial_info cookie, which is not much of a problem
for most of the struct of_serial_info fields we access but info->clk.
On platforms which do not provide a clock phandle for their UART nodes
but do provide a 'clock-frequency' property, we basically leave the
info->clk variable uninitialized, and this craps out during
suspend/resume with oopses, crashes or warnings in the clock code.
Fix this by using kzalloc() which also zeroes-out the structure and
provides an initialized info->clk member set to NULL.

Greg, Jiri,
This fixes a regression introduced in 3.18-rc1, thanks!
