Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 17/18] x86/sgx: Add support for misc cgroup controller

Perhaps "x86/sgx: Limit process EPC usage with misc cgroup controller"?

Or something more to the point than "add support".

I would consider changes to sgx_reclaim_epc_pages() as a separate patch,
perhaps squashing with the patch that does the export. And generally
separate from this patch all internal arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sgx changes,
and leave only cgroup bindings.
