Just like normal memory, SGX memory can be overcommitted. SGX has its
own reclaim mechanism which kicks in when physical SGX memory (Enclave
Page Cache / EPC) is exhausted. That reclaim mechanism is relatively
rarely exercised and needs selftests to poke at it.
The amount of EPC on the system is determined by the BIOS and it varies
wildly between systems. It can be dozens of MB on desktops, or many GB
on servers.
To run in a reasonable amount of time, the selftest needs to know how
much EPC there is in the system.
Introduce a new debugfs file to export that information.

+Debugging
+=========
+
+*/sys/kernel/debug/x86/sgx_total_mem* contains an integer describing
+the total SGX reserved memory in bytes, available in the system.
Why not add the details you have in the commit log to the document?
Also add more details on how to debug/test.
