I started with wanting to remove the dependency of the balloon
infrastructure on the page lock, but ended up performing various other
cleanups, some of which I had on my todo list for years.

This series heavily cleans up and simplifies our balloon infrastructure,
including our balloon page migration functionality.

Thanks, I'll add this. Again, I'll suppress the ensuing 528 emails.

Sigh, I do worry that the ongoing email deluge is training people to
ignore addition of things to mm.git. Maybe more emails like this one
is the way to address this.

It would be sufficient to only send a single mail for the whole patchset, maybe?
