To be able to use the VFIO interface to facilitate the mediated device memory pinning/unpinning we need to register a notifier for IOMMU. While we will start to pin one guest page for the interrupt indicator byte, this is still ok with ballooning as this page will never be used by the guest virtio-balloon driver. So the pinned page will never be freed. And even a broken guest does so, that would not impact the host as the original page is still in control by vfio.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
