TARGET_PAGE_* is only defined for target specific files, migration (in
general) is not one of them (ram.c on the other hand is).
Until we exported that function, there wasn't a way to know the
TARGET_PAGE_SIZE in migration.c, for instance.

We can't. This was the reason why we used to have exported the sizes in
bytes and in pages. There are files in qemu that are compiled by
target, and there are files that are compiled the same for all targets.
