Currently to setup a fully sparse descriptor space upfront, the app needs to alloate an array of the full size and memset it to -1 and then pass that in. Make this a bit easier by allowing a flag that simply does this internally rather than needing to copy each slot separately. This works with IORING_REGISTER_FILES2 as the flag is set in struct io_uring_rsrc_register, and is only allow when the type is IORING_RSRC_FILE as this doesn't make sense for registered buffers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
