Right, I added a uvm_pglistfree() here. Thanks.

There's no recovery needed. We lost these pages, they are marked as
allocated in UVM so that's OK. We could eventually reallocate the pages one by
one, but I'm not sure it's worth it as it's not something that should
happen anyway.

MEMOP_increase_reservation won't work if we didn't give enouth page
back first, because the hypervisor won't allow a domain to increase
its number of pages past the configured limit (and a domain starts with
this number of pages allocated).
