xen/balloon: set ballooned out pages as invalid in p2m
Since cd9151e2 (xen/balloon: set a mapping for ballooned out pages), a ballooned out page had its entry in the p2m set to the MFN of one of the scratch pages. This means that the p2m will contain many entries pointing to the same MFN. During a domain save, these many-to-one entries are not identified as such and the scratch page is saved multiple times. On restore the ballooned pages are populated with new frames and the domain may use up its allocation before all pages can be restored. Since the original fix only needed to keep a mapping for the ballooned page it is safe to set ballooned out pages as INVALID_P2M_ENTRY in the p2m (as they were before). Thus preventing them from being saved and re-populated on restore. Signed-off-by:David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Reported-by:
