Forward declarations of non-recursive static functions is usually a sign
that you didn't topologically sort your code correctly.  Just  implement
the function here, instead of later on.

Libvirt style is tending towards two blank lines between functions, and
return type on separate line (although we don't enforce either of these
yet, due to the large existing code base that used other styles), as in:

static int
qemuDomainGetBalloonMemory(virQEMUDriverPtr driver, ...

[1] Over-parenthesized.  Sufficient to write:

if (vm->def->memballoon &&
    vm->def->memballoon->model == VIR_DOMAIN_MEMBALLOON_MODEL_NONE) {

[2] If one leg of if-else has {}, both legs must have it.  This is
documented in HACKING (and I really ought to add a syntax check that
forbids obvious cases of unbalanced braces).

[3] Ouch.  This function is unlocking vm, even though it did not obtain
the lock.  Which it kind of has to do because of the way that
qemuDomainObjEndJob may end up invalidating vm.  While transfer
semantics are workable, they require good comments at the start of the
function, and making sure that the caller doesn't duplicate the efforts,
nor forget anything else.

[1] Then again, your parenthesis...

[2] ...and broken if-else bracing is just code motion.  So I could
overlook those (although cleaning them up at some point in the series,
even if in a separate patch, would still be nice).  But

[3] the fact that you don't use 'goto cleanup' here, but rely on the
awkward transfer semantics, is just confusing the situation.  I'd rather
avoid transfer semantics, but understand why you used them.  But I'd
still rewrite this as:

err = qemuDomainGetBalloonMemory(...);
vm = NULL;

and fall through to the cleanup label, rather than doing an early
return, to make it obvious that the call did a transfer of vm.
