don't we need to abort if leak_balloon() returned 0 for some reason?
I don't think so. Returning 0 should be a normal case when the host tries
to give back some pages to the guest, but there is no pages that have ever
been inflated. For example, right after booting the guest, the host sends a
deflating request to give the guest 1G memory, leak_balloon should return 0,
and guest wouldn't get 1 more G memory.
