Nit: 

This part isn't that accurate to me.  sgx_ioc_enclave_init() is for running host
SGX enclave and __sgx_virt_einit() is for executing the EINIT trapped from KVM
guests.  I.e., IMHO they are not "token initialization" and "token validation"
which sounds like two sides of the same coin.  And the access_ok() doesn't
validate the content of the EINITTOKEN anyway.

IHMO we can just remove this part.

Not sure whether the name SGX_EINITTOKEN_SIZE slightly matches better, but I am
fine with both.

With the nit mentioned in changelog fixed:
