Simplify the xsk_info and umem_info allocation by allocating them upfront in an array, instead of allocating an array of pointers to future creations of these. Allocating them upfront also has the advantage that configuration information can be stored in these structures instead of relying on global variables. With the previous structure, xsk_info and umem_info were created too late to be able to store most configuration information. This will be used to eliminate most global variables in later patches in this series.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
