Log:
[PERF]: What to do when your SYSEXIT code has a bug? Set
KiFastSystemCallDisable to TRUE so it never gets used. Now, for the first time
in 3 years and 3 months (not giving a specific revision # to protect the
'innocent'), ReactOS actually fully uses the SYSENTER/SYSEXIT instructions
isntead of IRETD, since my code doesn't exhibit the bug and SYSEXIT is safe to
use. This should save a good hundred cycles or more per system call.
