Recent commit 08999b2489b4 ("x86/sgx: Free backing memory after faulting the enclave page") expanded __sgx_encl_eldu() to clear an enclave page's PCMD (Paging Crypto MetaData) from the PCMD page in the backing store after the enclave page is restored to the enclave.
Since the PCMD page in the backing store is modified the page should be marked as dirty to ensure the modified data is retained.

Changes since RFC v1: - Do not set dirty bit on enclave page since it is not being written to and always will be discarded. (Dave)
