Subject: [PATCH v2 4/6] x86/sgx: Add SGX infrastructure to recover from poison

Provide a recovery function sgx_memory_failure(). If the poison was
consumed synchronously then send a SIGBUS. Note that the virtual
address of the access is not included with the SIGBUS as is the case
for poison outside of SGX enclaves. This doesn't matter as addresses
of code/data inside an enclave is of little to no use to code executing
outside the (now dead) enclave.
