Nit: spell out size instead of sz.

I'm still not excited by the dynamic resizing. I believe the guest
hypercall can be called in atomic contexts, which makes me
particularly unexcited to see a potentially large vmalloc on the host
followed by filling the buffer. Particularly when the buffer might be
non-trivial in size (~1MB per 32GB, per some back of the envelope
math).

I'd like to see an enable cap for preallocating this. Yes, the first
call might not be the right value because of hotplug, but won't the
VMM know when hotplug is happening? If the VMM asks for the wrong
size, and does not update the size correctly before granting the VM
access to more RAM, that seems like the VMM's fault.
