xen/balloon: ensure preemption is disabled when using a scratch page

In decrease_reservation(), if the kernel is preempted between updating
the mapping and updating the p2m then they may end up using different
scratch pages.

Use get_balloon_scratch_page() and put_balloon_scratch_page() which use
get_cpu_var() and put_cpu_var() to correctly disable preemption.
