Man, I really need to type faster.

To add to Jarkko's comments, for all intents and purposes they are individual
instructions, e.g. all of their own entries in the SDM, but are buried behind
a single opcode that switches on EAX, e.g. ECREATE is EAX=0, EADD is EAX=1,
EINIT is EAX=2. It's purely a way to save opcode space when the extra
overhead is a non-issue, e.g. SMX/TXT's GETSEC does the same shenanigans.

I've followed xarrays a little, but obviously not closely enough to
understand their advantages over radix trees. At a glance, range-based
iteration alone is probably justification enough to switch.

Question for Matthew:
To enforce the "page must be populated" rule, is there a clean way to retrieve
the index of the current entry? Our entries/pages don't have information
about their index. Or should we just count the number of entries and check
'em at the end? E.g.
xas_for_each(...) {
if (~page->vm_max_prot_bits & vm_prot_bits)
return -EACCES;
nr_entries++;
}
if (nr_entries != (end_index - start_index))
return -EACCES;
