Title:
   xen:balloon errors in 14.04 beta

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Utopic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:
  [Impact]
  The following errors may occur on HVM instances on EC2: xen:balloon: reserve_additional_memory: add_memory() failed: -17

  [Test Case]
  Boot Ubuntu Trusty 3.13 series HVM instances and check dmesg for this error message.

  [Fix]
  A minimal fix for this bug can be found here:
  https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=3dcf63677d4eb7fdfc13290c8558c301d2588fe8
  This allows the ballooning to be cancelled if adding new memory failed which means that the error message is printed once instead of repeatedly.

  There should still be effort to root cause this issue and determine
  how to avoid the ballooning errors in the first place. I still think
  this patch should be applied to alleviate symptoms until root cause is
  discovered.
