I note you ignore errors here. WARN_ON or something?
And why not handle same call during probe in the same way as here?

Will not fit in a long.

why warn here but not above where length is wrong?

All errors never re-add buffers so balloon will stop
working.

Pls use {} according to coding style now they don't fit on one line.

You assume REQ VQ implies STATS VQ. Why?

This is cmd, this is not req id.

th
Define values for these, this is good practice for an ABI.
And I think I would make DONE be 0 and CONT be 1.

Comments above are not informative.
Which enums refer to which field?
What is param and what happens to it?

Can't you reuse the same header for request and response?
That would be cleaner.
