[PATCH v2 1/2] misc: Add Nitro Secure Module driver

From: Alexander Graf
Date: Fri Sep 29 2023 - 09:33:46 EST


When running Linux inside a Nitro Enclave, the hypervisor provides a
special virtio device called "NSM". This device has 2 main functions:

1) Provide attestation reports
2) Modify PCR state
3) Provide entropy

This patch adds the core NSM driver that exposes a /dev/nsm device node
which user space can use to request attestation documents and influence
PCR states. A follow up patch will add a hwrng driver to feed its entropy
into the kernel.

v1 -> v2:

- Remove boilerplate
- Add uapi header
