[PATCH 1/3] xen/balloon: fix accounting in alloc_xenballooned_pages error path

From: Roger Pau Monne
Date: Thu Jul 23 2020 - 04:45:51 EST


target_unpopulated is incremented with nr_pages at the start of the
function, but the call to free_xenballooned_pages will only subtract
pgno number of pages, and thus the rest need to be subtracted before
returning or else accounting will be skewed.
