What commit-id is this meant to apply on top of? I can't apply this to
the latest development version of QEMU.

Any reason for matching up 64b addr w/ 32b size? The way I see it you
would be be better off going with either 64b for both or 32b for both.
I opted for the 32b approach in my case since there was already code
in place for doing the PFN shift anyway in the standard virtio_balloon
code path.

Have we made any determination yet on the MADV_FREE vs MADV_DONT_NEED?
My preference would be to have this code just reuse the existing
balloon code as I did in my patch set. Then we can avoid the need to
have multiple types in use. We could just have the balloon use the
same as the hint.

If you are doing a u64 addr, and a u32 len, does that mean you are
having to use a packed array between the guest and the host? This
would be another good reason to have both settle on either u64 or u32.

So this is obviously built against an old version of QEMU, the latest
values for this include:
#define VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT 3 /* VQ to report free pages */
#define VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_PAGE_POISON 4 /* Guest is using page poisoning */

I wonder if we shouldn't look for a term other than "HINT" since there
is already the code around providing hints to migration.
