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.

+ GCC plugins are loadable modules that provide extra features to the

+ bool "Generate some entropy during boot and runtime"
+ help
+ By saying Y here the kernel will instrument some kernel code to
+ extract some entropy from both original and artificially created
+ program state. This will help especially embedded systems where
+ there is little 'natural' source of entropy normally. The cost
+ is some slowdown of the boot process (about 0.5%) and fork and
+ irq processing.
+
+ Note that entropy extracted this way is not cryptographically
+ secure!
+
+ This plugin was ported from grsecurity/PaX. More information at:
