It's not specifically that we expect them (allocation failures for the 
loaded magazine), rather we should make safe against it.

So could you be more specific in your concern for the cpu_rcache 
failure? cpu_rcache magazine assignment comes from this logic.

Anyway, logic like "if not full" or "if not empty" is poor as the 
outcome for NULL is ambiguous (maybe there's a better word) and the code 
is not safe against it, and so I replace with "if space" or "if have an 
IOVA", respectively.

Thanks,
John
