Add a memory barrier pair to ensure all enclave state is visible in
memory prior to SGX_ENCL_CREATED being set.  Without the barries, adding
pages and/or initializing the enclaves could theoretically consume stale
data.

what if you just convert the flags to atomic_t? That would fix this
issue and would prevent analogous issues from occuring.

I thought about that too, but originally discarded the idea because I
was worried doing so would negatively impact the other uses of flags.
After actually implementing the change, I think the positives outweigh
the negatives, so I'll send a v2 with this suggestion.
