Why do you think PEB creation cannot fail in the first place?

Best regards,

 Modify MiCreatePebOrTeb to use MiInsertVadEx instead of doing everything
 "by hand". No, this does not "change Windows behavior". The TEB
creation
 works exactly as before, and the only difference in the PEB creation is
 that if the first attempt fails, we will no longer try again from the top
 of the address space. But since this cannot fail in the first place, at
 least not due to the VA range not being free, another attempt would be
 pointless anyway!
