Long and short descriptions should be separate. Also this does not
make any sense. LSM is a framework with a set of hook to make access
decisions and there various implementations of it.
How this replicates LSMs and why that even would be a goal?
My guess is that you are trying to do something else. I'm just saying
that the idea to do equivalent of LSMs to another subsystems would be
insane if it was done.

The mapping must be shared given that it is iomem but why enclave pages
would need RWX for all pages? The information that is missing from this
paragraph is the explanation why an LSM could not deny dangerous
behavior in PTE level.

I would keep descriptions such as "ugly things" away from commit
messages as it is easy way to be not clear and explicit what you are
trying to say.

There should be some explanation what ALLOW_* flag are. It is now like
as it was in common knowledge. SECINFO already has protection flags to
name an example and without any explanation all of this is just very
confusing.
This should address SECINFO and ALLOW_* relationship and differences.

Why these flags are even defined if they are the same as VM_* flags?

Even if the secinfo flags have the exactly the same values you should
not do this as they are kind of from different type. This is confusing
to read.

Why you take the trouble defining those macros and do not then use them
even yourself?

However this goes it would be good idea to have only ony patch in the
patch set that fully defines this function. Impossible to review
properly with this split.

This patch left me very confused. I don't get it.
