But shouldn't 'offset is relative to the file base' be conceptually correct from
the fadvice()'s point of view?
I think you should do:
encl_offset = offset + encl->base;
inside sgx_fadvice()?

I still think this code change is wrong.
For instance, IIUC, it at least breaks the case where enclave hasn't been
created/initialized, where encl->base == 0 (although normal code path doesn't
use vm_pgoff, conceptually it's still wrong IIUC).
Maybe I am missing something?
