We can now get rid of the cmm_lock and completely rely on the balloon compaction internals, which now also manage the page list and the lock. Inflated/"loaned" pages are now movable. Memory blocks that contain such pages can get offlined. Also, all such pages will be marked PageOffline() and can therefore be excluded in memory dumps using recent versions of makedumpfile. Don't switch to balloon_page_alloc() yet (due to the GFP_NOIO). Will do that separately to discuss this change in detail.

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.
