The Nitro Enclaves (NE) driver communicates with a new PCI device, that
is exposed to a virtual machine (VM) and handles commands meant for
handling enclaves lifetime e.g. creation, termination, setting memory
regions. The communication with the PCI device is handled using a MMIO
space and MSI-X interrupts.
This device communicates with the hypervisor on the host, where the VM
that spawned the enclave itself runs, e.g. to launch a VM that is used
for the enclave.
Define the MMIO space of the NE PCI device, the commands that are
provided by this device. Add an internal data structure used as private
data for the PCI device driver and the function for the PCI device
command requests handling.
