[PATCH] virtio_balloon: Fix endless deflation and inflation on arm64

The patches work well on my arm Ampere host.
The test results are as expected.

Testing
=======
(1) boot 64KB base page size guest, deflation balloon.

(2) Run kvm-unit-tests:
      6 cases skip, 32 cases pass.

(3) Run selftests TARGETS=kvm:
      23 cases all pass
