If non-zero, the return value of this function will be passed to
userspace by the pkey_alloc syscall. Shouldn't it be returning an errno
macro such as -EPERM?
Also, why are there both arch_set_user_pkey_access and
__arch_set_user_pkey_access? Is it a speed optimization so that the
early return is inlined into the caller? Ditto for execute_only_pkey
and __arch_override_mprotect_pkey.
