Jan Stancek d9e427f6ab virtio_balloon: fix increment of vb->num_pfns in fill_balloon()
commit c7cdff0e86 ("virtio_balloon: fix deadlock on OOM")
changed code to increment vb->num_pfns before call to
set_page_pfns(), which used to happen only after.

This patch fixes boot hang for me on ppc64le KVM guests.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
