We don't want pkey_inited to be present in all functions, why do we need
a conditional branch for all functions. Even if we do, it should be a jump
label. I would rather we just removed !pkey_inited unless really really
required.

What's a plain mprotect call?

If the user specified a key, we always use it? Presumably the user
got it from pkey_alloc(), in other cases, the user was lazy and used
-1 in the mprotect call?
