Thank you for doing this work.

Though I have to report a bug:

I have an amd64 Dom0 kernel w/o XEN_BALLOONING in the kernel config.
Boot the xen kernel with dom0_mem=512m

After login I do:

# sysctl kern.xen 
kern.xen.balloon.current = 131072
node_val out of range.
node_val = 0

I expect kern.xen.balloon.current to say 512MB and I don't expect to see
the node_val messages.
