Given that the expectation is a few instructions in userspace
(eg to pick up the original arguments for a nested call)
the (probable) thousands of clocks taken by entering the
kernel (especially with page table separation) is a massive
delta.
If entering the kernel were cheap no one would have added
the DSO functions for getting the time of day.
