David Hildenbrand e352f576d3 powerpc/pseries/cmm: fix managed page counts when migrating pages between zones 
Commit 63341ab037 (virtio-balloon: fix managed page counts when migrating
pages between zones) fixed a long existing BUG in the virtio-balloon
driver when pages would get migrated between zones.  I did not try to
reproduce on powerpc, but looking at the code, the same should apply to
powerpc/cmm ever since it started using the balloon compaction
infrastructure (luckily just recently).

In case we have to migrate a ballon page to a newpage of another zone, the
managed page count of both zones is wrong. Paired with memory offlining
(which will adjust the managed page count), we can trigger kernel crashes
and all kinds of different symptoms.

Fix it by properly adjusting the managed page count when migrating if
the zone changed.

We'll temporarily modify the totalram page count. If this ever becomes a
problem, we can fine tune by providing helpers that don't touch
the totalram pages (e.g., adjust_zone_managed_page_count()).

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
