Subject: [PATCH] slimbus: qcom-ngd-ctrl: Initialize controller resources in
 controller

The work structs and work queue are controller resources, create and
destroy them in the controller context. Creating them as part of the
child device's probe path seems to be okay now that the controller's
probe has been updated, but if for some reason the child does not probe
successfully a SSR or PDR notification will schedule_work() on an
uninitialized "ngd_up_work".

Move the initialization of these controller resources to the controller
probe function to avoid any issues, and to clarify the ownership.
