This is not such a clear change request to me:

SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_ADD_PAGES - add multiple pages
SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_RESTRICT_PERMISSIONS - restrict multiple permissions
SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_REMOVE_PAGES - remove multiple pages
SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_MODIFY_TYPE - set a single type

Perhaps it should rather be SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_SET_TYPE to indicate that
there is a single target type as opposed to the possibility
of multiple source types (TCS and regular pages can be trimmed).

ok, this was how it was done in V1 [1] and I can go back to that.
