    This has been shown in tests:
    
    [  +0.000008] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 7620 at kernel/rcu/srcutree.c:374 cleanup_srcu_struct+0xed/0x100
    
    This is essentially a use-after free, although SRCU notices it as
    an SRCU cleanup in an invalid context.
    
    == Background ==
    
    SGX has a data structure (struct sgx_encl_mm) which keeps per-mm SGX
    metadata.  This is separate from struct sgx_encl because, in theory,
    an enclave can be mapped from more than one mm.  sgx_encl_mm includes
    a pointer back to the sgx_encl.
    
    This means that sgx_encl must have a longer lifetime than all of the
    sgx_encl_mm's that point to it.  That's usually the case: sgx_encl_mm
    is freed only after the mmu_notifier is unregistered in sgx_release().
    
    However, there's a race.  If the process is exiting,
    sgx_mmu_notifier_release() can be called in parallel with sgx_release()
    instead of being called *by* it.  The mmu_notifier path keeps encl_mm
    alive past when sgx_encl can be freed.  This inverts the lifetime rules
    and means that sgx_mmu_notifier_release() can access a freed sgx_encl.
    
    == Fix ==
    
    Increase encl->refcount when encl_mm->encl is established. Release
    this reference when encl_mm is freed. This ensures that encl outlives
    encl_mm.
