59d6157441 l4lx: ballooning by using new parent interface
Implement a ballooning mechanism in L4Linux similar to solutions like XEN's
balloon driver. Therefore the new parent interface extensions for requesting
and yielding resources are used. L4Linux registers a yield signal context at
its parent. Whenever the parent triggers a yield, the balloon driver blows up,
which means it requests all pages available, and then frees the corresponding
backend memory.
