I'd hope these authors aren't referring to behavior under mitigation circumstances since *all* HFT firms disable cpu mitigation schemes from the kernel boot parameter list as a standard procedure.

It's true for IBM POWER, where all of a core's threads have to be in kernel mode or user mode and cannot intermix.
It's not true for x86. I also don't believe there is a stall
during the mode transition, otherwise a thread that continuously
issues null system calls could stall its sibling. That should be
easy to test.
