(Sorry for replying from Outlook because I am in travel for Chinese New Year.)

Perhaps I am missing something but I don't understand this change.

An empty sgx_active_page_list means you cannot reclaim any page from it, so why need to break?

And why adding this comment, especially in this patch?

I don't see it brings additional clarity because there's only global reclaim now, no matter whether cgroup is enabled or not.
