Drivers: hv: hv_balloon: Don't post pressure status from interrupt context
We currently release memory (balloon down) in the interrupt context and we also post memory status while releasing memory. Rather than posting the status in the interrupt context, wakeup the status posting thread to post the status. This will address the inconsistent lock state that Sitsofe Wheeler <sitsofe@gmail.com> reported: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1411.1/00075.html Signed-off-by: K. Y.
