Not related to your patch. The description of most of this stuff is wrong.
It's not the target size of the balloon, it's the target logical size of
the VM (logical_vm_size = vm_ram_size - balloon_size)
-> balloon_size = vm_ram_size - @value
E.g., "balloon 1024" with a 3G guest means "please inflate the balloon
to 2048"

Dito
@actual is the logical size of the VM (logical_vm_size = vm_ram_size -
balloon_size)

Dito
@actual is the logical size of the VM (vm_ram_size - balloon_size)
Most probably we want to pull this description fix out. #badinterface
