Same general criticism as for the previous patch: try to say things as
they are without anything extra.

'flags' should would renamed as 'secinfo_flags_mask' even if the name is
longish. It would use the same values as the SECINFO flags. The field in
struct sgx_encl_page should have the same name. That would express
exactly relation between SECINFO and the new field. I would have never
asked on last iteration why SECINFO is not enough with a better naming.

The same field can be also used to cage page type to a subset of values.
