This doesn't look right to me. I suspect this is different between
different hosts. Fixing this would also be tricky as we
might need to migrate beween two hosts with different
huge page sizes.

My proposal is to instead enhance the PartiallyBalloonedPage
machinery, teaching it to handle the case where host page
size is smaller than the supported number of subpages.
