The way in that memory balloon suppression was handled for S390 is flawed for a number or reasons. 1. Just preventing the default balloon to be created in the case of VIR_ARCH_S390[X] is not sufficient. An explicit memballoon element in the guest definition will still be honored, resulting both in a -balloon option and the allocation of a PCI bus address, neither being supported. 2. Prohibiting balloon for S390 altogether at a domain_conf level is no good solution either as there's work in progress on the QEMU side to implement a virtio-balloon device, although in conjunction with a new machine type. Suppressing the balloon should therefore be done at the QEMU driver level depending on the present capabilities. Therefore we remove the conditional suppression of the default balloon in domain_conf.c. Further, we are claiming the memballoon device for virtio-s390 during device address assignment to prevent it from being considered as a PCI device. Finally, we suppress the generation of the balloon command line option if this is a virtio-s390 machine.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
