[ Upstream commit 15504b1163007bbfbd9a63460d5c14737c16e96d ]
Let's move the removal of the page from the balloon list into the single caller, to remove the dependency on the PG_isolated flag and clarify locking requirements.
Note that for now, balloon_page_delete() was used on two paths:
(1) Removing a page from the balloon for deflation through balloon_page_list_dequeue() (2) Removing an isolated page from the balloon for migration in the per-driver migration handlers. Isolated pages were already removed from the balloon list during isolation.
So instead of relying on the flag, we can just distinguish both cases directly and handle it accordingly in the caller.
We'll shuffle the operations a bit such that they logically make more sense (e.g., remove from the list before clearing flags).
In balloon migration functions we can now move the balloon_page_finalize() out of the balloon lock and perform the finalization just before dropping the balloon reference.
Document that the page lock is currently required when modifying the movability aspects of a page; hopefully we can soon decouple this from the page lock.
