Description of problem: Some guest OSes may crash if the VirtIO balloon is enabled in ppc64 VMs. This can be worked around by the system administrator if he disables the balloon kernel module in the guest OS. This change introduces the following modifications: * Adds in the osinfo file a property to indicate if the balloon device must be disabled by default: os.{id}.devices.balloon.enabled.value = false * Changes the OS repository classes to work with the new property. * Modifies the REST API in order to disable the balloon device if the Memory Policy is omitted in cases where the guest OS has this new propery enabled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.4 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the New VM dialog 2. 3. Actual results: Balloon is enabled by default Expected results: Can configure in the osinfo the default value of the balloon Additional info:
