I think we settled already that this is the intended long term model.
However, what's wrong with having the kernel act PV-like on top of
a PoD-based hypervisor implementation. Simply not touching the
memory amount beyond the initial allocation would already make
things work afaict, i.e. even without any decrease-reservation
calls (and it would therefore desirable but mostly cosmetic to get
them done as early as possible).
