Subject: Re: [PATCH v9 10/15] x86/sgx: Add EPC reclamation in cgroup
 try_charge()

I am not sure about this.  I am also trying to get a full picture.

I asked because I didn't quite like the duplicated code change in 
try_charge() in this patch and in sgx_alloc_epc_page().  I think using 
per-group reclaim we can unify the code (I have even started to write 
the code) and I don't see the downside of doing so.

So I am trying to get the actual downside of doing per-cgroup reclaim or 
the full reason that we choose global reclaim.
