commit 63341ab03706e11a31e3dd8ccc0fbc9beaf723f0 upstream.
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.
One way to reproduce: 1. Start a QEMU guest with 4GB, no NUMA 2. Hotplug a 1GB DIMM and online the memory to ZONE_NORMAL 3. Inflate the balloon to 1GB 4. Unplug the DIMM (be quick, otherwise unmovable data ends up on it) 5. Observe /proc/zoneinfo Node 0, zone Normal pages free 16810 min 24848885473806 low 18471592959183339 high 36918337032892872 spanned 262144 present 262144 managed 18446744073709533486 6. Do anything that requires some memory (e.g., inflate the balloon some more).

Fix it by properly adjusting the managed page count when migrating if the zone changed. The managed page count of the zones now looks after unplug of the DIMM (and after deflating the balloon) just like before inflating the balloon (and plugging+onlining the DIMM).
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()).
Please note that fixing up the managed page count is only necessary when we adjusted the managed page count when inflating - only if we don't have VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM. With that feature, the managed page count is not touched when inflating/deflating.
