... and simplify alloc_balloon_pages() interface by removing redundant alloc_error from it. If we happen to enter balloon_up() with balloon_wrk.num_pages = 0 we will enter infinite 'while (!done)' loop as alloc_balloon_pages() will be always returning 0 and not setting alloc_error. We will also be sending a meaningless message to the host on every iteration. The 'alloc_unit == 1 && alloc_error -> num_ballooned == 0' change and alloc_error elimination requires a special comment. We do alloc_balloon_pages() with 2 different alloc_unit values and there are 4 different alloc_balloon_pages() results, let's check them all. alloc_unit = 512: 1) num_ballooned = 0, alloc_error = 0: we do 'alloc_unit=1' and retry pre- and post-patch. 2) num_ballooned > 0, alloc_error = 0: we check 'num_ballooned == num_pages' and act accordingly, pre- and post-patch. 3) num_ballooned > 0, alloc_error > 0: we report this chunk and remain within the loop, no changes here. 4) num_ballooned = 0, alloc_error > 0: we do 'alloc_unit=1' and retry pre- and post-patch. alloc_unit = 1: 1) num_ballooned = 0, alloc_error = 0: this can happen in two cases: when we passed 'num_pages=0' to alloc_balloon_pages() or when there was no space in bl_resp to place a single response. The second option is not possible as bl_resp is of PAGE_SIZE size and single response 'union dm_mem_page_range' is 8 bytes, but the first one is (in theory, I think that Hyper-V host never places such requests). Pre-patch code loops forever, post-patch code sends a reply with more_pages = 0 and finishes. 2) num_ballooned > 0, alloc_error = 0: we ran out of space in bl_resp, we report partial success and remain within the loop, no changes pre- and post-patch. 3) num_ballooned > 0, alloc_error > 0: pre-patch code finishes, post-patch code does one more try and if there is no progress (we finish with 'num_ballooned = 0') we finish. So we try a bit harder with this patch. 4) num_ballooned = 0, alloc_error > 0: both pre- and post-patch code enter 'more_pages = 0' branch and finish. So this patch has two real effects: 1) We reply with an empty response to 'num_pages=0' request. 2) We try a bit harder on alloc_unit=1 allocations (and reply with an empty tail reply in case we fail). An empty reply should be supported by host as we were able to send it even with pre-patch code when we were not able to allocate a single page.
