 * include/linux/balloon_compaction.h
 *
 * Common interface definitions for making balloon pages movable by compaction.
 *
 * Despite being perfectly possible to perform ballooned pages migration, they
 * make a special corner case to compaction scans because balloon pages are not
 * enlisted at any LRU list like the other pages we do compact / migrate.
 *
 * As the page isolation scanning step a compaction thread does is a lockless
 * procedure (from a page standpoint), it might bring some racy situations while
 * performing balloon page compaction. In order to sort out these racy scenarios
 * and safely perform balloon's page compaction and migration we must, always,
 * ensure following these three simple rules:
 *
 *   i. when updating a balloon's page ->mapping element, strictly do it under
 *      the following lock order, independently of the far superior
 *      locking scheme (lru_lock, balloon_lock):
 *	    +-page_lock(page);
 *	      +--spin_lock_irq(&b_dev_info->pages_lock);
 *	            ... page->mapping updates here ...
 *
 *  ii. before isolating or dequeueing a balloon page from the balloon device
 *      pages list, the page reference counter must be raised by one and the
 *      extra refcount must be dropped when the page is enqueued back into
 *      the balloon device page list, thus a balloon page keeps its reference
 *      counter raised only while it is under our special handling;
 *
 * iii. after the lockless scan step have selected a potential balloon page for
 *      isolation, re-test the PageBalloon mark and the PagePrivate flag
 *      under the proper page lock, to ensure isolating a valid balloon page
 *      (not yet isolated, nor under release procedure)
 *
 *  iv. isolation or dequeueing procedure must clear PagePrivate flag under
 *      page lock together with removing page from balloon device page list.
 *
 * The functions provided by this interface are placed to help on coping with
 * the aforementioned balloon page corner case, as well as to ensure the simple
 * set of exposed rules are satisfied while we are dealing with balloon pages
 * compaction / migration.
