[PATCH v6 kernel 2/5] virtio-balloon: define new feature bit and head struct

[Liang Li <liang.z.li@intel.com>]

Add a new feature which supports sending the page information
with range array. The current implementation uses PFNs array,
which is not very efficient. Using ranges can improve the
performance of inflating/deflating significantly.
