    virtio: update balloon size in balloon "probe" · 8424af53
    Konstantin Neumoin authored
    The following commit 'fad7b7b2 (virtio_balloon: Use a workqueue
    instead of "vballoon" kthread)' has added a regression. Original code with
    kthread starts the thread inside probe and checks the necessity to update
    balloon inside the thread immediately.
    
    Nowadays the code behaves differently. Work is queued only on the first
    command from the host after the negotiation. Thus there is a window
    especially at the guest startup or the module reloading when the balloon
    size is not updated until the notification from the host.
    
    This patch adds balloon size check at the end of the probe to match
    original behaviour.
