PLenty of drivers treat all mmaps as if MAP_POPULATE was specified,
typically by using (io_)remap_pfn_range.  If there any reason to only
optionally have the pre-fault semantics for sgx?  If not this should
be really simple.  And if we have a real need for it to be optional
we'll just need to find a sane way to pass that information to ->mmap.
