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.

+UFS Options
+===========
+
+ufstype=type_of_ufs
+ UFS is a file system widely used in different operating systems.
+ The problem are differences among implementations. Features of
+ some implementations are undocumented, so its hard to recognize
+ type of ufs automatically. That's why user must specify type of
+ ufs manually by mount option ufstype. Possible values are:
+
+ old
+ old format of ufs
+ default value, supported as read-only
+
+ 44bsd
+ used in FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD
+ supported as read-write
+
+ ufs2
+ used in FreeBSD 5.x
+ supported as read-write
+
+ 5xbsd
+ synonym for ufs2
+
+ sun
+ used in SunOS (Solaris)
+ supported as read-write
+
+ sunx86
+ used in SunOS for Intel (Solarisx86)
+ supported as read-write
+
+ hp
+ used in HP-UX
+ supported as read-only
+
+ nextstep
+ used in NextStep
+ supported as read-only
+
+ nextstep-cd
+ used for NextStep CDROMs (block_size == 2048)
+ supported as read-only
+
+ openstep
+ used in OpenStep
