A bad implementation of virtio might cause us to mark the virtqueue
broken: we'll dev_err() in that case, and the device is useless, but
let's not BUG().

When adding or removing 100G from a balloon:

    BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [vballoon:367]

We have a wait_event_interruptible(), but the condition is always true
(more ballooning to do) so we don't ever sleep.  We also have a
wait_event() for the host to ack, but that is also always true as QEMU
is synchronous for balloon operations.

Mark the function virtballoon_migratepage() as static in
virtio_balloon.c because it is not used outside this file.

This eliminates the following warning in virtio_balloon.c:

According to the virtio spec, the device configuration field
that should be updated after an inflation or deflation
operation is the 'actual' field, not the 'num_pages' one.

Commit 855e0c5288177bcb193f6f6316952d2490478e1c swapped them
in update_balloon_size(). Fix it.

This lets the transport do endian conversion if necessary, and insulates
the drivers from the difference.

Most drivers can use the simple helpers virtio_cread() and virtio_cwrite().

The freeze and restore functions defined in virtio drivers are used
for suspend and hibernate, so CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is more appropriate than
CONFIG_PM. This patch replace all CONFIG_PM with CONFIG_PM_SLEEP for
virtio drivers that implement freeze and restore callbacks.

Enhance adjust_managed_page_count() to adjust totalhigh_pages for
highmem pages.  And change code which directly adjusts totalram_pages to
use adjust_managed_page_count() because it adjusts totalram_pages,
totalhigh_pages and zone-&gt;managed_pages altogether in a safe way.

Remove inc_totalhigh_pages() and dec_totalhigh_pages() from xen/balloon
driver bacause adjust_managed_page_count() has already adjusted
totalhigh_pages.

This patch also fixes two bugs:

1) enhances virtio_balloon driver to adjust totalhigh_pages when
   reserve/unreserve pages.
2) enhance memory_hotplug.c to adjust totalhigh_pages when hot-removing
   memory.

We still need to deal with modifications of totalram_pages in file
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/cmm.c, but need help from PPC experts.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove ifdef, per Wanpeng Li, virtio_balloon.c cleanup, per Sergei]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: export adjust_managed_page_count() to modules, for drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c]

balloon_page_dequeue() can return NULL.  If it does for the first page
being freed then leak_balloon() will create a scatter list with len=0.
Which in turn seems to generate an invalid virtio request.

I didn't get this in practice, I found it by code review.  On the other
hand, such an invalid virtio request will cause errors in QEMU and
fill_balloon() also performs the same check implemented by this commit.

This bug was introduced in e2250429.
