Using the balloon hypercalls does work in my test. Below is a patch that
uses them directly in gntdev, which is simpler but doesn't handle errors
in re-ballooning and doesn't take advantage of already-ballooned pages
from the balloon device. Taking advantage of the balloon device is also
possible and would be more efficient, but adds another dependency to
gntdev. Any opinions on which method is preferred? If not, I'll try
making a patch to implement the balloon-assisted version.
8<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grant mappings cause the PFN<->MFN mapping to be lost on the pages
used for the mapping. Instead of leaking memory, explicitly free it
to the hypervisor and request the memory back after unmapping. This
removes the need for the bad-page leak workaround.
