[PATCH v6 1/2] Create debugfs file with virtio balloon usage information

[Alexander Atanasov]

Allow the guest to know how much it is ballooned by the host
and how that memory is accounted.

It is useful when debugging out of memory conditions,
as well for userspace processes that monitor the memory pressure
and for nested virtualization.

Depending on the deflate on oom flag memory is accounted in two ways.
If the flag is set the inflated pages are accounted as used memory.
If the flag is not set the inflated pages are substracted from totalram.
To make clear how are inflated pages accounted sign prefix the value.
Where negative means substracted from totalram and positive means
they are accounted as used.

V2:
  - fixed coding style
  - removed pretty print
V3:
  - removed dublicate of features
  - comment about balooned_pages more clear
  - convert host pages to balloon pages
V4:
  - added a define for BALLOON_PAGE_SIZE to make things clear
V5:
  - Made the calculatons work properly for both ways of memory accounting
    with or without deflate_on_oom
  - dropped comment
V6:
  - reduced the file to minimum
  - unify accounting

I didn't understand if you agree to change the accounting to be the same
so following part 2 is about it.
