Wakeup sources don't support nesting multiple events, so sharing a
single object between multiple drivers can result in one driver
overriding the wakeup event processing period specified by another
driver. Have the virtio balloon driver use the wakeup source of the
device it is bound to rather than the wakeup source of the parent
device, to avoid conflicts with the transport layer.
Note that although the virtio balloon's virtio_device itself isn't what
actually wakes up the device, it is responsible for processing wakeup
events. In the same way that EPOLLWAKEUP uses a dedicated wakeup_source
to prevent suspend when userspace is processing wakeup events, a
dedicated wakeup_source is necessary when processing wakeup events in a
higher layer in the kernel.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
