Yes, or just a >> 63.

it would be either ~(TARGET_PAGE_SIZE-1) or -TARGET_PAGE_SIZE, I think.

It is really the same as #1 but inlined, which is why I called it the worst.
#2 is ugly for a different reason, namely because it changes the code
more substantially, from using TARGET_PAGE_MASK pre-patch to
TARGET_PAGE_SIZE post-patch.
