RE: [PATCH v2 repost 4/7] virtio-balloon: speed up inflate/deflate process

+ *
+ * The actual limit of pfn is determined by:
+ * pfn_limit = min(max_pfn, VIRTIO_BALLOON_PFNS_LIMIT);
+ *
+ * If system has more pages than VIRTIO_BALLOON_PFNS_LIMIT, we will
+scan
+ * the page list and send the PFNs with several times. To reduce the
+ * overhead of scanning the page list. VIRTIO_BALLOON_PFNS_LIMIT
+should
+ * be set with a value which can cover most cases.

Please just include the correct header. No need for this hackery.

Will change. Thanks!
