Subject: virtio_balloon: fix race between migration and ballooning

From: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>

commit 21ea9fb69e7c4b1b1559c3e410943d3ff248ffcb upstream.

In balloon_page_dequeue, pages_lock should cover the loop
(ie, list_for_each_entry_safe). Otherwise, the cursor page could
be isolated by compaction and then list_del by isolation could
poison the page->lru.{prev,next} so the loop finally could
access wrong address like this. This patch fixes the bug.
