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.

+Broadcom introduced new bus as replacement for older SSB. It is based on AMBA,
+however from programming point of view there is nothing AMBA specific we use.
+
+Standard AMBA drivers are platform specific, have hardcoded addresses and use
+AMBA standard fields like CID and PID.
+
+In case of Broadcom's cards every device consists of:
+1) Broadcom specific AMBA device. It is put on AMBA bus, but can not be treated
+   as standard AMBA device. Reading it's CID or PID can cause machine lockup.
+2) AMBA standard devices called ports or wrappers. They have CIDs (AMBA_CID)
+   and PIDs (0x103BB369), but we do not use that info for anything. One of that
+   devices is used for managing Broadcom specific core.
+
+Addresses of AMBA devices are not hardcoded in driver and have to be read from
+EPROM.
+
+In this situation we decided to introduce separated bus. It can contain up to
+16 devices identified by Broadcom specific fields: manufacturer, id, revision
+and class.
