Would there normally be a userland interface to the balloon driver? My
(admittedly cursory) impression was that ballooning was an act
coordinated between the guest kernel and the hypervisor / control
domain. That would make it a matter entirely of concern to James' drivers.
Looking at his Mercurial log, it seems he's been working on it just a
few weeks ago -- see
