I still find it bizarre that this is conflated with mprotect().

I also remain entirely unconvinced that MKTME on anonymous memory is
useful in the long run.  There will inevitably be all kinds of fancy
new CPU features that make the underlying MKTME mechanisms much more
useful.  For example, some way to bind a key to a VM, or a way to
*sanely* encrypt persistent memory.  By making this thing a syscall
that does more than just MKTME, you're adding combinatorial complexity
(you forget pkey!) and you're tying other functionality (change of
protection) to this likely-to-be-deprecated interface.

This is part of why I much prefer the idea of making this style of
MKTME a driver or some other non-intrusive interface.  Then, once
everyone gets tired of it, the driver can just get turned off with no
side effects.
