It existed because back in the day this interface was thought to be
generic for all subsystem drivers.
Then hackers abused it, so it was changed to be hardcoded -- the value
remained only for compatibility and correctness.
Subsystem drivers (such as psxdrv.sys) are now regular automatic-start services.

That's strange indeed, as if Windows only accepted
the win32k module be
present only in \SystemRoot\System32 and be named win32k.sys.
I'm thus wondering why the KMode value exists, so.

PS: I'm going to revert the change asap.

This change is not correct. The kmode value is ignored and the system call
only accepts the hardcoded path.
I've asked you repeatedly to review with me before you change my code.
