Merge tag 'x86-splitlock-2020-03-30' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 splitlock updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Support for 'split lock' detection:
Atomic operations (lock prefixed instructions) which span two cache
lines have to acquire the global bus lock. This is at least 1k cycles
slower than an atomic operation within a cache line and disrupts
performance on other cores. Aside of performance disruption this is a
unpriviledged form of DoS.
Some newer CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when such an
operation is attempted. The detection is by default enabled in warning
mode which will warn once when a user space application is caught. A
command line option allows to disable the detection or to select fatal
mode which will terminate offending applications with SIGBUS"
