Pull virtio updates from Rusty Russell:
 "A balloon enhancement, and a minor race-on-module-unload theoretical
  bug which doesn't merit cc: stable.

  All the exciting stuff went via MST this cycle"

* tag 'virtio-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux:
  virtio_balloon: free some memory from balloon on OOM
  virtio_balloon: return the amount of freed memory from leak_balloon()
  virtio_blk: fix race at module removal
  virtio: Fix comment typo 'CONFIG_S_FAILED'
