[PATCH 2/2] Drivers: hv: balloon: Do not post pressure status if interrupted
From: K. Y. Srinivasan
Date: Fri Jul 12 2013 - 09:42:55 EST
When we are posting pressure status, we may get interrupted and handle
the un-balloon operation. In this case just don't post the status as we
know the pressure status is stale.
