Subject: [PATCH] x86/sgx: use vm_flags_t for vm_prot_bits

The vm_flags_t type is the dedicated type for virtual memory flags.
Architecture and driver code should use this type instead of assuming
vm_flags is an unsigned long, as the underlying type may change in the
future.

This follows the cleanup in commit d75fa3c94750 ("mm: update
architecture and driver code to use vm_flags_t") by converting the
remaining vm_prot_bits usage in SGX code.

No functional change intended.
