Two enclave threads may try to add and remove the same enclave page
simultaneously (e.g., if the SGX runtime supports both lazy allocation
and `MADV_DONTNEED` semantics). Consider this race:
1. T1 performs page removal in sgx_encl_remove_pages() and stops right
after removing the page table entry and right before re-acquiring the
enclave lock to EREMOVE and xa_erase(&encl->page_array) the page.
2. T2 tries to access the page, and #PF[not_present] is raised. The
condition to EAUG in sgx_vma_fault() is not satisfied because the
page is still present in encl->page_array, thus the SGX driver
assumes that the fault happened because the page was swapped out. The
driver continues on a code path that installs a page table entry
*without* performing EAUG.
3. The enclave page metadata is in inconsistent state: the PTE is
installed but there was no EAUG. Thus, T2 in userspace infinitely
receives SIGSEGV on this page (and EACCEPT always fails).
Fix this by making sure that T1 (the page-removing thread) always wins
this data race. In particular, the page-being-removed is marked as such,
and T2 retries until the page is fully removed.
