Sure, thanks for the review, here is an updated version.

>From e5c898b1b2b734fdc4aa2acf645efd481f09b71d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roger Pau Monne <roger....@citrix.com> Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2014 16:34:31 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] xen/virtio: fix balloon drivers to not mark pages as WIRED Prevent the Xen and VirtIO balloon drivers from marking pages as wired. This prevents them from increasing the system wired page count, which can lead to mlock failing because of hitting the limit in vm.max_wired. In the Xen case make sure pages are zeroed before giving them back to the hypervisor, or else we might be leaking data. Also remove the balloon_{append/retrieve} and link pages directly into the ballooned_pages queue using the plinks.q field in the page struct.
