Again: the ram_addr_t matching is internal to QEMU and can vary from
release to release. Do not do this.

You don't need to translate it once per page. When QEMU copies the
bitmap from guest memory to its own internal data structures, it can do
so one block at a time with a function like
void bitmap_copy_bits(unsigned long *dst, unsigned int dst_start,
unsigned long *src, unsigned int src_start
unsigned int nbits);
