Anthony reported that >4GB guests on Xen with 32bit QEMU broke after
commit 4ed023c ("Round up RAMBlock sizes to host page sizes", 2015-11-05).
In that patch sizes are masked against qemu_host_page_size/mask which
are uintptr_t, and thus 32bit on a 32bit QEMU, even though the ram space
might be bigger than 4GB on Xen.
Since ram_addr_t is not available on user-mode emulation targets, ensure
that we get a sign extension when masking away the low bits of the address.
Remove the ~10 year old scary comment that the type of these variables
is probably wrong, with another equally scary comment. The new comment
however does not have "???" in it, which is arguably an improvement.
For completeness use the alignment macros in linux-user and bsd-user
instead of manually doing an &. linux-user and bsd-user are not affected
by the Xen issue, however.
