Ok, I'll use page for consistency's sake.

In access_guest_real we get back the gpa directly from the translation function.
After the next patch the same is true for access_guest.
So using gpas everywhere is nicer.
And if we were to introduce a len_in_page function the offset would not even show up as an intermediary.
