The poison_val field in the virtio_balloon_config is treated as a little-endian field by the host. Since we are currently only having to deal with a single byte poison value this isn't a problem, however if the value should ever expand it would cause byte ordering issues. Document that in the code so that we know that if the value should ever expand we need to byte swap the value on big-endian architectures.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
