This patch series is separated from the previous "Virtio-balloon Enhancement" series. The new feature, VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT, implemented by this series enables the virtio-balloon driver to report hints of guest free pages to the host. It can be used to accelerate live migration of VMs. Here is an introduction of this usage: Live migration needs to transfer the VM's
