Why attributes of value 0 is considered not a value? Is it because 0 is 
not a valid value when RWX is considered in the future?

No need to handle the alignment again since both address and size are 
page aligned.

Both the changelog and the document added mention that the address and 
size of attrs will be updated to
"reflect the actual pages of the memory range have been successfully set 
to the attributes", but it doesn't.
