vmware balloon: rename module
In an effort to minimize customer confusion we want to unify naming convention for VMware-provided kernel modules. This change renames the balloon driver from vmware_ballon to vmw_balloon. We expect to follow this naming convention (vmw_<module_name>) for all modules that are part of mainline kernel and/or being distributed by VMware, with the sole exception of vmxnet3 driver (since the name of mainline driver happens to match with the name used in VMware Tools).
