In theory, the memory handed back by the balloon driver shouldn't be

can't give the memory to another guest until we know for sure that the
first guest can't possibly access it anymore. I think we should be
able to modify the balloon driver to "batch" some number of updates;
say, 1024 at a time. Paul, any thoughts on this?
The decrease_reservation op is called with however many PFNs can fit
into the Windows MDL structure (8184 for a 32-bit VM) so we already do
things in pretty big batches.
