[PATCH v2 1/4] xen/balloon: fix accounting in alloc_xenballooned_pages error path

target_unpopulated is incremented with nr_pages at the start of the
function, but the call to free_xenballooned_pages will only subtract
pgno number of pages, and thus the rest need to be subtracted before
returning or else accounting will be skewed.
