[PATCH v4 31/48] virtio_balloon: dynamically allocate the virtio-balloon shrinker

[Qi Zheng]

In preparation for implementing lockless slab shrink, use new APIs to
dynamically allocate the virtio-balloon shrinker, so that it can be freed
asynchronously using kfree_rcu(). Then it doesn't need to wait for RCU
read-side critical section when releasing the struct virtio_balloon.
