By adding tcp->s_ent pointer tot syscall table entry, we can replace sysent[tcp->scno] references by tcp->s_ent. More importantly, we may ensure that tcp->s_ent is always valid, regardless of tcp->scno value. This allows us to drop SCNO_IS_VALID(tcp->scno) checks before we access syscall table entry. We can optimize (qual_flags[tcp->scno] & QUAL_foo) checks with a similar technique.
