[PATCH v5 7/7] VMware balloon: Enable notification via VMCI
From: Philip P. Moltmann
Date: Thu Aug 06 2015 - 18:22:36 EST
Get notified immediately when a balloon target is set, instead of waiting for
up to one second.
The up-to 1 second gap could be long enough to cause swapping inside of the
VM that receives the VM.

This is VMware physical memory management driver which acts
like a "balloon" that can be inflated to reclaim physical pages
