virtio-balloon: Fix possible guest memory corruption with inflates & deflates

This fixes a balloon bug with a nasty consequence - potentially
corrupting guest memory - but which is extremely unlikely to be
triggered in practice.

The balloon always works in 4kiB units, but the host could have a
larger page size on certain platforms.  Since ed48c59 "virtio-balloon:
Safely handle BALLOON_PAGE_SIZE < host page size" we've handled this
by accumulating requests to balloon 4kiB subpages until they formed a
full host page.  Since f6deb6d "virtio-balloon: Remove unnecessary
MADV_WILLNEED on deflate" we essentially ignore deflate requests.

Suppose we have a host with 8kiB pages, and one host page has subpages
A & B.  If we get this sequence of events -
	inflate A
	deflate A
	inflate B
- the current logic will discard the whole host page.  That's
incorrect because the guest has deflated subpage A, and could have
written important data to it.

This patch fixes the problem by adjusting our state information about
partially ballooned host pages when deflate requests are received.
