Introduce a helper function for guest frame access.

"guest page access"

Ok.

But I do wonder if you actually want to call it

"access_guest_abs"

and say "guest absolute access" instead here.

Because we're dealing with absolute addresses and the fact that we are
accessing it page-wise is just because we have to perform a page-wise
translation in the callers (either virtual->absolute or real->absolute).

Theoretically, if you know you're across X pages but they are contiguous
in absolute address space, nothing speaks against using that function
directly across X pages with a single call.

There currently is no point to this, is there?
kvm_read/write_guest break the region up into pages anyway,
so no reason to try to identify larger continuous chunks.

Considering that we call kvm functions that have page in the name and this is directly over the function where it's used I'd leave the naming as it is.

@David: How strongly do you feel about this?
