There is no need to update the balloon actual register when there is no

It sounds reasonable but it does have a side effect of
not writing into actual anymore.

I am not sure actual never can get out of sync as a result.

So better deferred, pls send this in the next merge window.


No problem, it's not urgent to me.

Best,
