VMware balloon enhancements: adding support for memory compaction,
memory shrinker (to prevent OOM) and splitting of refused pages to
prevent recurring inflations.

Patches 1-2: Support for compaction
Patch 3: Support for memory shrinker - disabled by default
Patch 4: Split refused pages to improve performance

v1->v2:
* Return number of pages in list enqueue/dequeue interfaces [Michael]
* Removed first two patches which were already merged

Nadav Amit (4):
  mm/balloon_compaction: list interfaces
  vmw_balloon: compaction support
  vmw_balloon: add memory shrinker
  vmw_balloon: split refused pages
