Why you want to allow mmap() to be called multiple times? mmap() could
be allowed only once with PROT_NONE and denied afterwards. Is this for
sending fd to another process that would map already existing enclave?

I don't see any checks for whether the is enclave underneath. Also, I
think that in all cases mmap() callback should allow only PROT_NONE
as permissions for clarity even if it could called multiple times.
