Nit: Patch is the transient form of a change. Once a change has been
committed, it is a commit.

Further, you should instead explain why subsequent changes require
sgx_can_reclaim() wrapper, than just claim it without argument.

Alternatively, you can consider squashing this to the subsequent
patch, which makes use of the wrapper.
