virtio_balloon: Fix endian bug
Although virtio config space fields are usually in guest-native endian, the spec for the virtio balloon device explicitly states that both fields in its config space are little-endian. However, the current virtio_balloon driver does not have a suitable endian swap for the 'num_pages' field, although it does have one for the 'actual' field. This patch corrects the bug, adding sparse annotation while we're at it. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
