SubjectRe: [PATCH v9 8/8] x86/split_lock: Enable split lock detection initialization when running as an guest on KVM

This needs crystal clear documentation. What, exactly, is the host
telling the guest if it sets this flag?

This needs much better docs. Do you mean:

"If KVM_HINTS_SLD_FATAL is set, then the guest will get #AC if it does
a split-lock regardless of what is written to MSR_TEST_CTRL?"
