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.

+RapidIO Subsystem Guide
+=======================
+
+:Author: Matt Porter
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+RapidIO is a high speed switched fabric interconnect with features aimed
+at the embedded market. RapidIO provides support for memory-mapped I/O
+as well as message-based transactions over the switched fabric network.
+RapidIO has a standardized discovery mechanism not unlike the PCI bus
+standard that allows simple detection of devices in a network.
+
+This documentation is provided for developers intending to support
+RapidIO on new architectures, write new drivers, or to understand the
+subsystem internals.
+
+Known Bugs and Limitations
+==========================
+
+Bugs
+----
+
+None. ;)
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+1. Access/management of RapidIO memory regions is not supported
+
+2. Multiple host enumeration is not supported
+
+RapidIO driver interface
+========================
+
+Drivers are provided a set of calls in order to interface with the
+subsystem to gather info on devices, request/map memory region
+resources, and manage mailboxes/doorbells.
