xen/balloon: don't alloc page while non-preemptible

David Vrabel · konradwilk · commit 24f69373e212 · 2013-09-24T16:22:27.000-04:00
get_balloon_scratch_page() disables preemption so we cannot call
alloc_page() in between get/put_balloon_scratch_page().  Shuffle bits
around in decrease_reservation() to avoid this.
