Return code	Description
STATUS_SUCCESS	The routine successfully changed the protection type for the memory address range.
STATUS_INVALID_PAGE_PROTECTION	The value specified for NewProtect is not a valid one for this routine.
STATUS_NOT_MAPPED_VIEW	The MDL has not yet been mapped. MmProtectMdlSystemAddress can only be used on MDLs that have already been mapped.
