If it returns always 0, the return value is pointless and the function 
mm_pkey_free() should be changed to return void.

Same.

Don't initialise 'ret'

Make it explicit, do 'return -EINVAL'

Once that is done, is there any point in having a fallback version of 
mm_pkey_free() which returns -EINVAL ?

Add:

	else
		ret = -EINVAL;
