Again, 99% of the changelog is boilerplate that does nothing to help me
understand what the test actually does.

I would *very* strongly prefer to have a bus lock test that is comment to VMX
and SVM. For L1, there's no unique behavior. And for L2, assuming we don't
support nested bus lock enabling, the only vendor specific bits are launching
L2.
I.e. writing this so it works on both VMX and SVM should be quite straightforward.

Heh, NR_ITERATIONS.

Eh, I would just split a page, that's about as future proof as we can get in
terms of cache line sizes.

So... this test doesn't actually verify that a bus lock exit occurs. The userspace
side will eat an exit if one occurs, but there's literally not a single TEST_ASSERT()
in here.
