[PATCH 4.19 07/28] xen/balloon: fix cancelled balloon action
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Oct 11 2021 - 10:15:39 EST
From: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>
commit 319933a80fd4f07122466a77f93e5019d71be74c upstream.
In case a ballooning action is cancelled the new kernel thread handling
the ballooning might end up in a busy loop.
Fix that by handling the cancelled action gracefully.
While at it introduce a short wait for the BP_WAIT case.
