https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/issues/79
The virtio-balloon device now has the ability to report free pages
back to the hypervisor for reuse by other programs.
This kernel feature allows for more stable and resource friendly systems.
This feature is available in QEMU and is enabled with free-page-reporting=on
default virt setting should be off but the user should be able to enable it.
Nico Pache (4):
Document and parser support for the Virtio free page reporting
feature.
QEMU: declare qemu capabilities for the Virtio Free page reporting
feature
QEMU: introduce Virtio free page reporting feature
provide testing for free-page-reporting feature in QEMU

Couple of white space problems, but nothing I couldn't fix before pushing.
