Memory hotplug support for Xen balloon driver. It should be
mentioned that hotplugged memory is not onlined automatically.
It should be onlined by user through standard sysfs interface.
There are a few prerequisite patches which fixes some problems
found during work on memory hotplug patch or add some futures
which are needed by this patch. They are available here:
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/28/94,
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/28/98.
I have received notice that previous series of patches broke
machine migration under Xen. I am going to confirm that and
solve that problem ASAP. I do not have received any notices
about other problems till now.
