Randy, thanks for the ioctl doc refs.

I can update the ioctl-number doc to add an entry for the the Nitro
Enclaves uapi with 0xAE and 0x20-0x3f range + update the KVM entry to
have 0xAE 0x00-0x1f and 0x40-0xff.

Will then use 0xAE and 0x20 for NE_ENCLAVE_START.

Paolo, let me know if we should do this ioctl number update other way.
And thanks for the proposal. :)

Thanks,
Andra
