I suspect this is not needed. Pages can get into balloon either from
here or from non-hotplug path (e.g. decrease_reservation()) and so when
we get a page from the balloon we would get a random page that may or
may not have Reserved bit set.

This won't build.

Did you mean

    attach = dma_buf_attach(&attach_info);

?
