KVM: Don't pre-reserve xarray entries when storing empty/NULL attributesgrafted
Skip the xarray reservation loop when clearing all memory attributes, as storing NULL only erases the entry and never needs to allocate, so no reservation (and no cleanup of a failed one) is required in that case.

+Description:
+ Information about whether a given device can be removed from the
+ platform by the user. This is determined by its subsystem in a
+ bus / platform-specific way. This attribute is only present for
+ devices that can support determining such information:
+
+ =========== ===================================================
+ "removable" device can be removed from the platform by the user
+ "fixed" device is fixed to the platform / cannot be removed
+ by the user.
+ "unknown" The information is unavailable / cannot be deduced.
+ =========== ===================================================
+
+ Currently this is only supported by USB (which infers the
+ information from a combination of hub descriptor bits and
+ platform-specific data such as ACPI) and PCI (which gets this
+ from ACPI / device tree).
