Don't add an EPC page to the free page list of EREMOVE fails, as doing
so will cause any future attempt to use the EPC page to fail, and likely
WARN as well.

How did you end up choosing -EIO? Don't immediately have any better
suggestion but neither sure if that is the best choice. That is why I'm
asking.

sgx_edbgrd() and sgx_edbgwr() return -EIO on failure, and they're the only
other case I can think of where an ENCLS instruction failure is reported
to userspace *and* may or may not be due to a fault.

I honestly didn't spend much time thinking about it as the code is dropped
in the next path.
