I think the problem is, this adds an API between mm and balloon
device that is pretty complex: consider that previously we literally
only used alloc_page, __free_page and page

the number of 2MB contiguous memory blocks that can be used within a guest,
thus imposing performance penalties associated with the reduced number of
transparent huge pages that could be used by the guest workload.
