When running Linux inside a Nitro Enclave, the hypervisor provides a
special virtio device called "Nitro Security Module" (NSM). This device
has 3 main functions:
1) Provide attestation reports
2) Modify PCR state
3) Provide entropy
This patch adds a driver for NSM that exposes a /dev/nsm device node which
user space can issue an ioctl on this device with raw NSM CBOR formatted
commands to request attestation documents, influence PCR states, read
entropy and enumerate status of the device. In addition, the driver
implements a hwrng backend.

v1 -> v2:
- Remove boilerplate
- Add uapi header
v2 -> v3:
- Move globals to device struct
- Add compat handling
- Simplify some naming
- Remove debug prints
- Use module_virtio_driver
- Drop use of uio.h
v3 -> v4:
- Merge hwrng into the misc driver
- Add dependency on CBOR library
- Add internal and ioctl logic for all current NSM actions
- Use in-struct arrays instead of kvecs
- Add sysfs entries for NSM metadata
- Use dev_ print and devm_ allocation helpers
v4 -> v5:
- Remove CBOR parsing and generation again
- Remove support for any non-raw ioctls
v5 -> v6:
- Change devm callers to normal ones when devm logic is not needed
- Remove double free
- Remove superfluous list_head
v6 -> v7:
- Use big endian number helpers for cbor arrays length parsing
- Replace waitqueue with completion
- Move transfer buffer into struct nsm
- Remove useless file ops for open/close

Ping for inclusion? I haven't seen any further comments on v7 of this
patch, so I'd assume it's good to go? :)

Alex are you going to publish the spec patch for this device? Important
so we don't need to guess at behaviour when e.g. making changes to
virtio APIs. Also, which tree do you want this to go through?

The spec patch including ping mail are sitting on the virtio-comments
mailing list since October. I haven't seen any reply unfortunately :(

Happy to read feedback if you have any :).
This patch here is already applied in Greg's misc tree which I'm happy
to have it trickle to Linus through.
