This patch introduces helper functions that teach compaction and migration bits
how to cope with pages which are part of a guest memory balloon, in order to

The function fill_balloon in drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c
should probably add __GFP_MOVABLE to the gfp mask for alloc_pages,
to keep the pageblock where balloon pages are allocated marked
as movable.
