Obviously this needs some clarification.  While we're here, I find this a
bit confusing; I tend to use the present tense for the way the code is
before the patch, and the imperative for what the patch does; so Id' say:

Rename guest_physmap_add_entry() to p2m_add_page; make
guest_physmap_remove_page a wrapper with p2m_remove_page.  That way callers
can use suitable pairs...

Other than that looks good.
