Well it is handy for sizing arrays and this isn't the first time we did
this:

commit 4d32029b8ddb7be4d1699c6d8e1675ff5476d149
Author: Tomáš Golembiovský <tgolembi@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Sun Nov 12 13:05:38 2017 +0100

    virtio_balloon: include disk/file caches memory statistics
    
  

commit 5057dcd0f1aaad57e07e728ba20a99e205c6b9de
Author: Igor Redko <redkoi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Thu Mar 17 14:19:08 2016 -0700

    virtio_balloon: export 'available' memory to balloon statistics
    

how about we give QEMU a hand and just put the list of names in
the header?

I posted a patch like that, pls review.
