You must split this in quite a few separate patches:

1. One for each fix.
2. At least one patch for each change in compiler and linker options with a
   commit message clearly expalaining why the change was made.
3. One for each simplification.

We don't support 32-bit build:

config INTEL_SGX
	bool "Intel SGX core functionality"
	depends on X86_64 && CPU_SUP_INTEL
