mm/balloon_compaction: use a device-independent balloon (list) lock

In order to remove the dependency on the page lock for balloon pages, we
need a lock that is independent of the page.

It's crucial that we can handle the scenario where balloon deflation
(clearing page->private) can race with page isolation (using page->private
to obtain the balloon_dev_info where the lock currently resides).

The current lock in balloon_dev_info is therefore not suitable.

Fortunately, we never really have more than a single balloon device per
VM, so we can just keep it simple and use a static lock to protect all
balloon devices.

Based on this change we will remove the dependency on the page lock next.
