balloon: Separate out stat and balloon handling
Passing on '0' as ballooning target to indicate retrieval of stats is bad API. It also makes 'balloon 0' in the monitor cause a segfault. Have two different functions handle the different functionality instead. Detailed explanation from Markus's review: 1. do_info_balloon() is an info_async() method. It receives a callback with argument, to be called exactly once (callback frees the argument). It passes the callback via qemu_balloon_status() and indirectly through qemu_balloon_event to virtio_balloon_to_target(). virtio_balloon_to_target() executes its balloon stats half. It stores the callback in the device state. If it can't send a stats request, it resets stats and calls the callback right away. Else, it sends a stats request. The device model runs the callback when it receives the answer. Works. 2. do_balloon() is a cmd_async() method. It receives a callback with argument, to be called when the command completes. do_balloon() calls it right before it succeeds. Odd, but should work. Nevertheless, it passes the callback on via qemu_ballon() and indirectly through qemu_balloon_event to virtio_balloon_to_target(). a. If the argument is non-zero, virtio_balloon_to_target() executes its balloon half, which doesn't use the callback in any way. Odd, but works. b. If the argument is zero, virtio_balloon_to_target() executes its balloon stats half, just like in 1. It either calls the callback right away, or arranges for it to be called later. Thus, the callback runs twice: use after free and double free. Test case: start with -S -device virtio-balloon, execute "balloon 0" in human monitor. Runs the callback first from virtio_balloon_to_target(), then again from do_balloon().
