If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Nadav Amit commit 90d72ce079791399ac255c75728f3c9e747b093d upstream. Embarrassingly, the recent fix introduced worse problem than it solved, causing the balloon not to inflate. The VM informed the hypervisor that the pages for lock/unlock are sitting in the wrong address, as it used the page that is used the uninitialized page variable.
