balloon: check the number of available pages in leak balloon
The balloon has a special mechanism that is subscribed to the oom notification which leads to deflation for a fixed number of pages. The number is always fixed even when the balloon is fully deflated. But leak_balloon did not expect that the pages to deflate will be more than taken, and raise a "BUG" in balloon_page_dequeue when page list will be empty. So, the simplest solution would be to check that the number of releases pages is less or equal to the number taken pages.
