Subject: [PATCH v11 0/6] Virtio-balloon Enhancement

This patch series enhances the existing virtio-balloon with the following new
features:
1) fast ballooning: transfer ballooned pages between the guest and host in
chunks, instead of one by one; and
2) cmdq: a new virtqueue to send commands between the device and driver.
Currently, it supports commands to report memory stats (replace the old statq
mechanism) and report guest unused pages.

v10->v11 changes:
1) virtio_balloon: use vring_desc to describe a chunk;
2) virtio_ring: support to add an indirect desc table to virtqueue;
3)  virtio_balloon: use cmdq to report guest memory statistics.

Liang Li (1):
  virtio-balloon: deflate via a page list

Wei Wang (5):
  virtio-balloon: coding format cleanup
  virtio-balloon: VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_PAGE_CHUNKS
  mm: function to offer a page block on the free list
  mm: export symbol of next_zone and first_online_pgdat
  virtio-balloon: VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_CMD_VQ
