[ros-arm-bringup] 34879: The address space creation lock is a guarded mutex, not a pushlock, in NT 5.2. While it is commendable to attempt using Vista optimizations (it is a push lock on Vista) in order to speed up the kernel, it is entirely stupid to do so by completing ignoring the ramifications of this change, and furthermore, to pollute the kernel with typecasts, as well as to introduce non-standard behavior. Ironically it is ion himself who made this change.

The address space creation lock is a guarded mutex, not a pushlock, in NT 5.2. While it is commendable to attempt using Vista optimizations (it is a push lock on Vista) in order to speed up
the kernel, it is entirely stupid to do so by completing ignoring the ramifications of this change, and furthermore, to pollute the kernel with typecasts, as well as to introduce non-standard
behavior. Ironically it is ion himself who made this change.
