This really doesn't do what you think it does.

	int ret = 0;
	int count = 0;

	xas_lock(&xas);
	while (xas.index < idx_end) {
		struct sgx_page *page = xas_next(&xas);

		if (!page || (~page->vm_max_prot_bits & vm_prot_bits)) {
			ret = -EACCESS;
			break;
		}

		if (++count % XA_CHECK_SCHED)
			continue;
		xas_pause(&xas);
		xas_unlock(&xas);
		cond_resched();
		xas_lock(&xas);
	}
	xas_unlock(&xas);

	return ret;
