Feature.  The stuff in those files is pure KVM, there's nothing interesting from
an SGX subsystem persective.  That's another reason to have sgx/virt.c, the
stuff that does impact SGX can all go in there.

The KVM SGX code is in split out because virtualizing ENCLS leafs takes a
painful amount of code, and because SGX already has a separate Kconfig.
Association with the SGX subsystem was a non-factor in that choice.
