This table and half the changelog is unnecessary and confusing.  State that
SLD is exposed to the guest if and only if SLD is disabled in the host and
SMT is disabled (or the MSR is thread scoped), and leave it at that.

Reiterating everything that was implemented in previous patches does more
harm than good.

Pretty sure disable_split_lock_detect won't exist, but if it does, don't
reuse it for emulating guest behavior.  Keep the two things separate, i.e.
use vmx->msr_test_ctrl to track guest state and use the disable_sld to
track when the feature has been disabled for an ignorant guest.

The "!!" isn't necessary.

Again, check for SLD before AC, it's significantly cheaper.

Ratelimiting change belongs in the earlier path.  Moot point if this routes
through handle_user_split_lock().

This will be massively simplified by letting TIF_SLD do the dirty work.
Since SLD will be exposed to the guest if and only if it's disabled in the
host, this becomes:

	if (static_cpu_has(...) && vmx->msr_test_control)
		wrmsrl(MSR_TEST_CTL,
		       this_cpu_read(msr_test_ctl_val) | vmx->msr_test_ctl);

	__vmx_vcpu_run();


        if (static_cpu_has(...) && vmx->msr_test_control)
                wrmsrl(MSR_TEST_CTL, this_cpu_read(msr_test_ctl_val));

And only if SLD is disabled, no?
