I have at least one more update to the reclaimer but want to merge these
first.

It adds optional struct epc_page **reclaimed_page to
sgx_reclaim_pages(). If NULL, the function will just append everything
to the free pool. Otherwise, it will use it to return one of the
reclaimed pages if there are any.

sgx_alloc_page() then does the following when @reclaim=true:

1. If page in free page pool, take one.
2. If not, try to reclaim one.
3. If nothing was reclaimed -ENOMEM.

Right now sgx_alloc_page() can in theory take however long.

I wonder why we do not return -ENOMEM also when @reclaim=false. Where
did this returning -EBUSY came from? Can't recall.
