I actually think we need to also have a bit for some of the 32-bit entry
point differences, since the registers have different meanings for them.
We have kluges in place for them, but those kluges cause their own
problems when registers are modified.
So that means at least four states (SYSCALL64, SYSENTER, SYSCALL32, INT
80) plus the presence bit. Furthermore, three out of those states apply
even to pure 32-bit kernels.
