3.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Konstantin Khlebnikov <k.khlebnikov@samsung.com>
commit 4d88e6f7d5ffc84e6094a47925870f4a130555c2 upstream.
If CONFIG_BALLOON_COMPACTION=n balloon_page_insert() does not link pages with balloon and doesn't set PagePrivate flag, as a result balloon_page_dequeue() cannot get any pages because it thinks that all of them are isolated. Without balloon compaction nobody can isolate ballooned pages. It's safe to remove this check.
