It's missing an entry in QMP/qmp-events.txt and I have a comment below,
but in general looks good.
Amit, would be good to get your ack.

This can cause several events to be emitted until the memory is adjusted
to the value asked by the user. I'm undecided if this is a feature, but
if I were a client issuing the balloon command I'd expect to get the event
only when the memory is fully adjusted to the value I asked.
Not sure if this possible to implement though, or if we really want it.
