IMNHO this follows a user interface anti-pattern: exposing page sizes
where not strictly required.

Think of how this would look to an application if page size was
variable.  With this interface, they always need to scale their
operations by page size instead of just aligning it.

BTW, why is nr_pages a u32?  Do we never envision a case where you can
add more than 4TB of memory to an enclave? ;)
