This patch set enhances the balloon driver functionality to add support
for memory "hot-add". Windows hosts use a combination of ballooning and
hot-add to dynamically balance the available memory across competing virtual
machines. With this, Linux guests can fully participate in the Windows
Dynamic Memory protocol.

Additionally, I have also fixed an issue in the Vmbus driver in the way
the offer rescind message is handled.

K. Y. Srinivasan (6):
  Drivers: hv: balloon: Do not request completion notification
  Drivers: hv: balloon: Execute balloon inflation in a separate context
  Drivers: hv: balloon: Execute hot-add code in a separate context
  Drivers: hv: balloon: Make the balloon driver not unloadable
  Drivers: hv: balloon: Implement hot-add functionality
  Drivers: hv: vmbus: Handle channel rescind message correctly
