[PATCH v1 02/23] vmw_balloon: remove vmballoon_compaction_init()

Now that there is not a lot of logic left, let's just inline setting up
the migration function and drop all these excessive comments that are
not really required (or true) anymore.

To avoid #ifdef in the caller we can instead use IS_ENABLED() and make
the compiler happy by only providing the function declaration.
