virtio: last minute fixes for 3.4

Here are a couple of last minute virtio fixes for 3.4.
Hope it's not too late yes - I might have tried too hard
to make sure the fix is well tested.

Fixes are by Amit and myself. One fixes module removal
and one suspend of a VM, the last one the handling of out
of memory condition.
They are thus very low risk as most people never hit these paths, but do fix
very annoying problems for people that do use the feature.

      virtio: console: tell host of open ports after resume from s3/s4
      virtio: balloon: let host know of updated balloon size before module removal
