Rather than defining PAGE_SIZE here (a confusing macro given
we have several page sizes to deal with), why not just use
getpagesize() in the one and only location where we currently
use this macro?

Also, you're guaranteed that page_size_init() has been run, because
we call that from kvm_init(), and you can't call kvm_vcpu_init()
before kvm_init().
