Additional data length in the attestation request is an in/out variable.
Software provides the capacity of the buffer. Upon successful request,
firmware reports the actual bytes written to the additional data in that
field. This information is lost, as the length field was not copied back
to userspace before. Attestation might fail, if user space did not
specify the exact amount of needed bytes required, as this length is
part of the attestation measurement.

This patch adds a new miscdevice to expose some Ultravisor functions
to userspace. Userspace can send IOCTLs to the uvdevice that will then
emit a corresponding Ultravisor Call and hands the result over to
userspace. The uvdevice is available if the Ultravisor Call facility is
present.
Userspace can call the Retrieve Attestation Measurement
Ultravisor Call using IOCTLs on the uvdevice.
The uvdevice will do some sanity checks first.
Then, copy the request data to kernel space, build the UVCB,
perform the UV call, and copy the result back to userspace.
