Drivers: hv: hv_balloon: do not online pages in offline blocks
Currently we add memory in 128Mb blocks but the request from host can be aligned differently. In such case we add a partially backed block and when this block goes online we skip onlining pages which are not backed (hv_online_page() callback serves this purpose). When we receive next request for the same host add region we online pages which were not backed before with hv_bring_pgs_online(). However, we don't check if the the block in question was onlined and online this tail unconditionally. This is bad as we avoid all online_pages() logic: these pages are not accounted, we don't send notifications (and hv_balloon is not the only receiver of them),... And, first of all, nobody asked as to online these pages. Solve the issue by checking if the last previously backed page was onlined and onlining the tail only in case it was.
