I'm really worried that you're going for "perfect" semantics here.  This
is SGX.  It's *NOT* getting heavy use and even fewer folks will ever
apply cgroup controls to it.

Can we please stick to simple, easily-coded rules here?  I honestly
don't think these corner cases matter all that much and there's been
*WAY* too much traffic in this thread for what is ultimately not that
complicated.  Focus on *ONE* thing:

1. Admin sets a limit
2. Enclave is created
3. Enclave hits limit, allocation fails

Nothing else matters.  What if the admin lowers the limit on an
already-created enclave?  Nobody cares.  Seriously.  What about inducing
reclaim?  Nobody cares.  What about vEPC?  Doesn't matter, an enclave
page is an enclave page.
