The virDomainGetXMLDesc and virDomainGetInfo APIs for QEMU suffer
from needing to run 'query-balloon' to update the balloon level.
This has caused us performance problems and even worse caused us
to lock up on a dead QEMU.
The following two patches to QEMU add a BALLOON_EVENT and a query-events
command to QMP. With those two parts, we can avoiding running the
query-balloon command at all.
