From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com>

kmap is inefficient and is being replaced by kmap_local_page(), if
possible.

That said, there is no readily apparent reason why initp_page needs to
be allocated and kmap'ed() except that 'sigstruct' needs to be page
aligned and 'token' 512 byte aligned.

Rather than change this kmap() to kmap_local_page() use kmalloc()
instead because kmalloc() can gives this alignment when allocating
PAGE_SIZE bytes.

Remove the alloc_page()/kmap() and replace with kmalloc(PAGE_SIZE, ...)
to get a page aligned kernel address.

In addition add a comment to document the alignment requirements so that
others don't attempt to 'fix' this again.

Changes from v5[5]:
	From Boris
		Clean up commit msg and comment

Changes from v4[4]:
        Add Ack and Reviews
        Send to the correct maintainers

Changes from v3[3]:
	Remove BUILD_BUG_ONs

Changes from v2[2]:
        When allocating a power of 2 size kmalloc() now guarantees the
        alignment of the respective size.  So go back to using kmalloc() but
        with a PAGE_SIZE allocation to get the alignment.  This also follows
        the pattern in sgx_ioc_enclave_create()

Changes from v1[1]:
	Use page_address() instead of kcmalloc() to ensure sigstruct is
	page aligned
	Use BUILD_BUG_ON to ensure token and sigstruct don't collide.
