Seems the decision to choose whether to implement a stub function for some
function is quite random to me.

My impression is people in general don't like #ifdef in the C file but prefer to
implementing it in the header in some helper function.

I guess you might want to just implement a stub function for each of the 3
functions exposed, so that we can eliminate some #ifdefs in the sgx/main.c (see
below).

In the case MISC cgroup is enabled in Kconfig but disabled by command line, I
think this becomes legal now?

Here you are using #ifdef  CONFIG_CGRUP_SGX_EPC, but ...

... here you are using IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CGROUP_SGX_EPC).

Any reason they are not consistent?

Also, in the case where MISC cgroup is disabled via commandline, I think it
won't work, because misc_cg_root() should be NULL in this case while
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CGROUP_SGX_EPC) is true.

This #ifdef CONFIG_CGROUP_SGX_EPC can be removed if we implement a stub function
for sgx_cgroup_should_reclaim().
