Various enhancements for VMware balloon, some of which are remainder
from a previous patch-set.

Patch 1: Drop the version number
Patch 2: Adds support for 64-bit memory limit
Patches 3-4: Support for compaction
Patch 5: Support for memory shrinker - disabled by default
Patch 6: Split refused pages to improve performance

This is sort of a resend, since patches 2-6 have not been sent (the mail
server rejected since Xavier, whose email address was deactivated, was
mistakenly cc'd). Patch 1 was changed according to Greg's feedback.
