Subject: [PATCH v5 3/7] x86/sgx: Initial poison handling for dirty and free pages

A memory controller patrol scrubber can report poison in a page
that isn't currently being used.

Add "poison" field in the sgx_epc_page that can be set for an
sgx_epc_page. Check for it:
1) When sanitizing dirty pages
2) When freeing epc pages

Poison is a new field separated from flags to avoid having to make
all updates to flags atomic, or integrate poison state changes into
some other locking scheme to protect flags.

In both cases place the poisoned page on a list of poisoned epc pages
to make sure it will not be reallocated.

Add debugfs files /sys/kernel/debug/sgx/poison_page_list so that system
administrators get a list of those pages that have been dropped because
of poison.
