[PATCH RFCv1 4/5] xen/balloon: try to merge "System RAM" resources

From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Fri Jul 31 2020 - 05:19:10 EST


Let's reuse the new mechanism to merge "System RAM" resources below the
root. We are the only one hotplugging "System RAM" and DIMMs don't apply,
so this is safe to use.
