This construct is rather fugly.  Let's not perpetuate it, please.  Why
not do:

	int ret = -ERESTARTSYS;

	...
	for (c = 0 ; c < modp->length; c += PAGE_SIZE) {
		if (sgx_check_signal_and_resched())
			goto out;

Then, voila, when c==0 on the first run through the loop, you'll get a
ret=-ERESTARTSYS.

But honestly, it seems kinda silly to annotate all these loops with
explicit cond_resched()s.  I'd much rather do this once and, for
instance, just wrap the enclave locks:

-	  mutex_lock(&encl->lock);
+	  sgx_lock_enclave(encl);

and then have the lock function do the rescheds.  I assume that
mutex_lock() isn't doing this generically for performance reasons.  But
we don't care in SGX land and can just resched to our heart's content.
