This changelog itself doesn't explain _why_ renaming 'owner' to 'encl_owner' can avoid the explicit casting. In fact, the reason is that you will use a 'union' to separate the use of 'owner' of the EPC page (between SGX driver and virtual EPC). The rename is just to make the name more clear, but cannot really avoid casting. So I think there should be more sentences to explain here, such as "in order to send SIGBUS to userspace hypervisor to allow it to inject #MC to guest, use virtual EPC page's owner to be the userspace virtual address of the EPC page", and after those you can say something like "in order to avoid casting, use a union to separate the use of owner for SGX driver EPC page and virtual EPC page. And rename owner of SGX driver EPC page to 'encl_owner' to be more specific", etc. That being said, I guess you can just merge this patch with your second patch, which actually introduces the 'union' and uses the owner for virtual EPC page. And in changelog you explain everything above to justify the patch.
