[PATCH v18 10/10] virtio-balloon: don't report free pages when page poisoning is enabled

[Wei Wang]

The guest free pages should not be discarded by the live migration thread
when page poisoning is enabled with PAGE_POISONING_NO_SANITY=n, because
skipping the transfer of such poisoned free pages will trigger false
positive when new pages are allocated and checked on the destination.
This patch skips the reporting of free pages in the above case.
