Could that be collapsed into one movable_balloon_page(newpage) function
call?

Keeping is_balloon_page() as is, and itroducing this new movable_balloon_page()
function call, or just doing a plain rename, as Andrew has first suggested?

Just a plain rename would work.

As an aside, since you are only comparing page->mapping and
not dereferencing it, it can be simplified to just:

return (page->mapping == balloon_mapping);
