Enclave runtime management is introduced following the pattern
of the section describing enclave building. Provide a brief
summary of enclave runtime management, pointing to the functions
implementing the ioctl()s that will contain details within their
kernel-doc.

The SGX documentation has a few repeated or one-off issues:
* Remove capitalization from regular words in the middle of a sentence.
* Remove punctuation found in the middle of a sentence.
* Fix name of SGX daemon to consistently be ksgxd.
* Fix typo of SGX instruction: ENIT -> EINIT

For bare-metal SGX on real hardware, the hardware provides guarantees
SGX state at reboot. For instance, all pages start out uninitialized.
The vepc driver provides a similar guarantee today for freshly-opened
vepc instances, but guests such as Windows expect all pages to be in
uninitialized state on startup, including after every guest reboot.
Some userspace implementations of virtual SGX would rather avoid having
to close and reopen the /dev/sgx_vepc file descriptor and re-mmap the
virtual EPC. For example, they could sandbox themselves after the guest
starts and forbid further calls to open(), in order to mitigate exploits
from untrusted guests.
Therefore, add a ioctl that does this with EREMOVE. Userspace can
invoke the ioctl to bring its vEPC pages back to uninitialized state.
There is a possibility that some pages fail to be removed if they are
SECS pages, and the child and SECS pages could be in separate vEPC
regions. Therefore, the ioctl returns the number of EREMOVE failures,
telling userspace to try the ioctl again after it's done with all
vEPC regions. A more verbose description of the correct usage and
the possible error conditions is documented in sgx.rst.

Add a misc device /dev/sgx_vepc to allow userspace to allocate "raw"
Enclave Page Cache (EPC) without an associated enclave. The intended
and only known use case for raw EPC allocation is to expose EPC to a
KVM guest, hence the 'vepc' moniker, virt.{c,h} files and X86_SGX_KVM
Kconfig.
The SGX driver uses the misc device /dev/sgx_enclave to support
userspace in creating an enclave. Each file descriptor returned from
opening /dev/sgx_enclave represents an enclave. Unlike the SGX driver,
KVM doesn't control how the guest uses the EPC, therefore EPC allocated
to a KVM guest is not associated with an enclave, and /dev/sgx_enclave
is not suitable for allocating EPC for a KVM guest.
Having separate device nodes for the SGX driver and KVM virtual EPC also
allows separate permission control for running host SGX enclaves and KVM
SGX guests.
To use /dev/sgx_vepc to allocate a virtual EPC instance with particular
size, the hypervisor opens /dev/sgx_vepc, and uses mmap() with the
intended size to get an address range of virtual EPC. Then it may use
the address range to create one KVM memory slot as virtual EPC for
a guest.
Implement the "raw" EPC allocation in the x86 core-SGX subsystem via
/dev/sgx_vepc rather than in KVM. Doing so has two major advantages:
- Does not require changes to KVM's uAPI, e.g. EPC gets handled as
just another memory backend for guests.
- EPC management is wholly contained in the SGX subsystem, e.g. SGX
does not have to export any symbols, changes to reclaim flows don't
need to be routed through KVM, SGX's dirty laundry doesn't have to
get aired out for the world to see, and so on and so forth.
The virtual EPC pages allocated to guests are currently not reclaimable.
Reclaiming an EPC page used by enclave requires a special reclaim
mechanism separate from normal page reclaim, and that mechanism is not
supported for virutal EPC pages. Due to the complications of handling
reclaim conflicts between guest and host, reclaiming virtual EPC pages
is significantly more complex than basic support for SGX virtualization.

EREMOVE takes a page and removes any association between that page and
an enclave. It must be run on a page before it can be added into another
enclave. Currently, EREMOVE is run as part of pages being freed into the
SGX page allocator. It is not expected to fail, as it would indicate a
use-after-free of EPC pages. Rather than add the page back to the pool
of available EPC pages, the kernel intentionally leaks the page to avoid
additional errors in the future.
However, KVM does not track how guest pages are used, which means that
SGX virtualization use of EREMOVE might fail. Specifically, it is
legitimate that EREMOVE returns SGX_CHILD_PRESENT for EPC assigned to
KVM guest, because KVM/kernel doesn't track SECS pages.
To allow SGX/KVM to introduce a more permissive EREMOVE helper and
to let the SGX virtualization code use the allocator directly, break
out the EREMOVE call from the SGX page allocator. Rename the original
sgx_free_epc_page() to sgx_encl_free_epc_page(), indicating that
it is used to free an EPC page assigned to a host enclave. Replace
sgx_free_epc_page() with sgx_encl_free_epc_page() in all call sites so
there's no functional change.
At the same time, improve the error message when EREMOVE fails, and
add documentation to explain to the user what that failure means and
to suggest to the user what to do when this bug happens in the case it
happens.
