Not sure if that change is really required: if the second mprotect
succeeds, errno should not be updated. At least if my memory is correct :)
Same applies to similar cases below.

We're losing improtant information here.

Same here and in other cases below (I probably didn't catch all).
We should log that somehow to indicate what exactly is going wrong,
likely using ksft_print_msg().

Probably worth going over all your changes and double checking them, I'm
sure I missed some.
