accel/tcg: Document the faulting lookup in tb_lookup_cmp
It was non-obvious to me why we can raise an exception in the middle of a comparison function, but it works. While nearby, use TARGET_PAGE_ALIGN instead of open-coding. Acked-by: Ilya Leoshkevich <iii@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Henderson <richard.henderson@linaro.org>
