Duh, and use a named union.  I think when I first proposed this I forgot that
a single value would be passed between kvm_hva_range *and* kvm_gfn_range, and so
created an anonymous union without thinking about the impliciations.

A named union is _much_ cleaner.  I'll post a complete version of the below
snippet as a standalone non-RFC patch.
