virtio_balloon: fix handling of PAGE_SIZE != 4k
As reported by David Gibson, current code handles PAGE_SIZE != 4k
completely wrong which can lead to guest memory corruption errors:
- page_to_balloon_pfn is wrong: e.g. on system with 64K page size
it gives the same pfn value for 16 different pages.
- we also need to convert back to linux pfns when we free.
- for each linux page we need to tell host about multiple balloon
pages, but code only adds one pfn to the array.
This patch fixes all that, tested with a 64k ppc64 kernel.
