Actually, maybe like this:

struct sgx_enclave_add_page_desc {
	__u64	addr;
	__u64	offset;
	__u64	secinfo;
	__u16	mrmask;
	__u8	reserved[6];
};

struct sgx_enclave_add_page {
	__u64	src;
	__u64	nr_pages;
	__u64	pages;
};

I.e. probably makes sense to fix the same source for all pages.

Also wondering if we should have special case for adding zero pages?
I.e. when you set @src to NULL ioctl would assume that zero pages
would be added?

E.g. I could use this in the selftest to create variable size data
segment.
