From: Luiz capitulino <lcapitul...@redhat.com>

This is necessary for automatic ballooning. If the guest gets
under pressure while there's an on-going inflation operation,
we want the guest to do the following:

 1. Stop on-going inflation
 2. Notify the host we're under pressure
 3. Wait for host's acknowledge

While the guest is waiting the host has the opportunity to
reset num_pages to a value before the guest got into pressure.
This will cancel current inflation.
