Hotplugging what? EPC can't be hotplugged, EPC enumeration through CPUID
won't change post-boot and the ACPI entry can't be relied upon for EPC
base/size information when there are multiple EPC sections.

What if we clear vm_private_data? And maybe do a pr_warn_ratelimited()
so that userspace gets some form of notification that forking an enclave
failed. A NULL encl is easy to check in the fault handler and any where
else we consume vmas.

Ah, I see the flow. If we do keep the enclave killing behavior then I
think it'd make sense to let this be handled by checking SGX_ENCL_DEAD.
But AFAICT things will "just work" if we nullify vm_private_data.
