xen/tmem: Don't use self[ballooning|shrinking] if frontswap is off.
There is no point. We would just squeeze the guest to put more and more pages in the swap disk without any purpose. The only time it makes sense to use the selfballooning and shrinking is when frontswap is being utilized. Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
