As is evident from the code, the hv_balloon driver already has accounting
for the number of pages that have been ballooned out of the VM. This
accounting and other details of the hv_balloon driver state is available in
/sys/kernel/debug/hv-balloon when CONFIG_DEBUGFS=y. But it seems OK
to also report the # of pages ballooned through /proc/meminfo, which
works even if CONFIG_DEBUGFS=n.
