Also avoids a bunch of refactoring to make sure to set the owner field
while holding zone->lock.

I roughly coded it up and the old part 0001 was:

 arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sgx/encl.c  |    5 +++--
 arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sgx/encl.h  |    2 +-

which is by no means huge, but the new part 0001 is

 arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sgx/main.c |    4 +++-
 arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sgx/sgx.h  |    3 +++
