Subject[PATCH 4/5] Drivers: hv: balloon: Initialize last_post_time on startup
Date
From: Alex Ng <alexng@messages.microsoft.com>

When left uninitialized, this sometimes fails the following check in
post_status():

if (!time_after(now, (last_post_time + HZ))) {
return;
}

This causes unnecessary delays in reporting memory pressure to host after
booting up.
