[PATCH] drivers: xen-selfballoon: consider slab pages

From: Bob Liu
Date: Mon Nov 04 2013 - 07:39:43 EST


Currently the goal_page in xen-selfballon doesn't consider much about pages used
in kernel space.
A typical usage is slab pages, without consider slab pages the goal_page result
may be too rough and lead extra memory pressure to guest os.
