A reboot? Seriously? Why?
How are you going to explain to cloud people that they need to reboot
their fat server? The same cloud people who want to make sure Intel
supports late microcode loading no matter the effort just so to avoid
rebooting the machine.
But now all of a sudden, if they wanna have SGX enclaves in guests, they
need to get prepared for potential rebooting.
I sure hope I'm missing something...
