There's nothing much we can do here - there's no easy way for us to
distinguish between pages which are 'ballooned out' and pages which
are temporarily being used for network buffers. I've checked in a fix
to unstable (cset 13185:62ef527eb19f) which simply removes this particular
debug output.
thanks for spotting this!
