struct sgx_encl should be protected with the mutex sgx_encl->lock. One exception is sgx_encl->page_cnt that is incremented (in sgx_encl_grow()) when an enclave page is added to the enclave. The reason the mutex is not held is to allow the reclaimer to be called directly if there are no EPC pages (in support of a new VA page) available at the time.
Incrementing sgx_encl->page_cnt without sgc_encl->lock held is currently (before SGX2) safe from concurrent updates because all paths in which sgx_encl_grow() is called occur before enclave initialization and are protected with an atomic operation on SGX_ENCL_IOCTL.
SGX2 includes support for dynamically adding pages after enclave initialization where the protection of SGX_ENCL_IOCTL is not available.
Make direct reclaim of EPC pages optional when new VA pages are added to the enclave. Essentially the existing "reclaim" flag used when regular EPC pages are added to an enclave becomes available to the caller when used to allocate VA pages instead of always being "true".
When adding pages without invoking the reclaimer it is possible to do so with sgx_encl->lock held, gaining its protection against concurrent updates to sgx_encl->page_cnt after enclave initialization.
No functional change.

Thank you.
Nit: I don't think tested-by is in the right patch here. Maybe Haitao's tested-by should be moved into patch that actually adds support for EAUG? Not something I would NAK this patch, just wondering...
Yes, that is a good point. While this is the bulk of the fix where the new API is introduced, the test is only applicable when this API is used and that is in "x86/sgx: Support adding of pages to an initialized enclave". I will move the "Tested-by" to that patch.
