Comment:

 See branch: `bug23539_032_01`

 Making `KISTSchedRunInterval` a `uint32_t` has a lot of ramification so
 this needs careful review. Basically, now if the consensus sets that value
 to 0, it disables KIST. If the user sets it to 0 (default value), it will
 ask the consensus for its opinion.
