2.5.5.6 Device Operation: VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST is negotiated
Make that clear: it was not the original intention, but no implementation actually requires this feature, and making it compulsory has unintended consequences (it is unlike any other feature). Ported from draft, commit ed6dd6e5b4c4c01084ff1638b754ad823d0b80f8.
