Subject: [RFC PATCH 10/20] x86/sgx: Return the number of EPC pages that were successfully reclaimed

From: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@...el.com>

Return the number of reclaimed pages from sgx_reclaim_pages(), the EPC
cgroup will use the result to track the success rate of its reclaim
calls, e.g. to escalate to a more forceful reclaiming mode if necessary.
