David Gibson 596546fe9e virtio-balloon: Restore MADV_WILLNEED hint on balloon deflate 
Prior to f6deb6d9 "virtio-balloon: Remove unnecessary MADV_WILLNEED on
deflate", the balloon device issued an madvise() MADV_WILLNEED on
pages removed from the balloon.  That would hint to the host kernel
that the pages were likely to be needed by the guest in the near
future.

It's unclear if this is actually valuable or not, and so f6deb6d9
removed this, essentially ignoring balloon deflate requests.  However,
concerns have been raised that this might cause a performance
regression by causing extra latency for the guest in certain
configurations.

So, until we can get actual benchmark data to see if that's the case,
this restores the old behaviour, issuing a MADV_WILLNEED when a page is
removed from the balloon.
