Subject: [PATCH] iommu/iova: Optimize iova_magazine_alloc()

Only the member 'size' needs to be initialized to 0. Clearing the array
pfns[], which is about 1 KiB in size, not only wastes time, but also
causes cache pollution.

Nit: maybe sizeof(*mag) is preferable?

Yes, sizeof(*mag) is the more recommended usage, I will post v2 tomorrow.
