And: use 'count' to mean 'number of pages'. Since the patch also changes
req_size to req_count.
I'm casting about for a nice place in the code, to put your above note...and
there isn't one. But would it be terrible to just put a short comment
block at the top of this file, just so we have it somewhere? It's pretty
cool to settle on a consistent terminology, so backing it up with "yes, we
actually mean it" documentation would be even better.
One minor note below, but no bugs spotted, and this clarifies the code a bit, so:

This line seems to unrepentantly mix offset and index, still. :)
