[RESEND PATCH v3 kernel 0/7] Extend virtio-balloon for fast (de)inflating & fast live migration

This patch set contains two parts of changes to the virtio-balloon. One is the change for speeding up the inflating & deflating process, the main idea of this optimization is to use bitmap to send the page information to host instead of the PFNs, to reduce the overhead of virtio data
