Squashed. How about re-write the commit log as follows:

x86/sgx: Save enclave pointer for VA page

Tearing down all enclaves is required by SGX SVN update, which
involves running the ENCLS[EREMOVE] instruction on every EPC
page. This (tearing down all enclaves) should be coordinated
with any enclaves that may be in the process of existing and thus
already be running ENCLS[EREMOVE] as part of enclave release.

In support of this coordination, it is required to know which enclave
owns each in-use EPC page. It is already possible to locate the
owning enclave of SECS and regular pages but not for VA pages.

Make the following changes for VA page's location:
1) Make epc->owner type-agnostic by change its type to 'void *'. So,
   besides "struct sgx_encl_page", it can have other types, like
   "struct sgx_va_page".
2) Save the enclave pointer for each VA page to support locating its
   owning enclave.

Note: to track 2T EPC memory, this scheme of tracking will use
additional 8M memory.
