Other problem is that there are drivers that do not use
adjust_managed_page_count().
Which ones? Do we care?
VMWare and Virtio balloon drivers. I recently proposed to unify them and
the objection was that it would break existing users - which is valid so
we must care i guess.
I'm confused, I think we care about actual adjustment of the total pages
available here, that we want to notify the system about. These
approaches (vmware, virtio-balloon with deflate-on-oom) don't adjust
totalpages, because the assumption is that we can get back the inflated
memory any time we really need it automatically.
