[PATCH v2] virtio-balloon: do not call blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING

virtio balloon has this code:
wait_event_interruptible(vb->config_change,
 (diff = towards_target(vb)) != 0

Which is a problem because towards_target() call might block after

the task_struct::state collision typical of nesting of sleeping
primitives
