Below kernel bug happened when running simple SGX application when EPC
is under pressure.  The root cause is with commit 5b8719504e3a
("x86/sgx: Add a basic NUMA allocation scheme to sgx_alloc_epc_page()"),
__sgx_alloc_epc_page() returns NULL when there's no free EPC page can be
allocated, while old behavior was it always returned ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) in
such case.

Fix by directly returning the page if __sgx_alloc_epc_page_from_node()
allocates a valid page in fallback to non-local allocation, and always
returning ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) if no EPC page can be allocated.
