vmw_balloon: simplify vmballoon_send_get_target()
As we want to leave as little as possible on the global balloon
structure, to avoid possible future races, we want to get rid sysinfo.
We can actually get the total_ram directly, and simplify the logic of
vmballoon_send_get_target() a little.
While we are doing that, let's return int and avoid mistakes due to
bool/int conversions.
