Subject: [PATCH 01/15] x86/split_lock: Add CONFIG and enumerate #AC exception for split locked access feature

Add CONFIG_SPLIT_LOCK_AC (default: y, dependent on X86 and CPU_SUP_INTEL)
to control inclusion of the feature.

Bit 29 in MSR TEST_CTL 0x33 can only be set on processors that support
the feature. On processors not supporting the feature, the bit is reserved
i.e. can not be set as one) or the MSR doesn't exist.

To detect the feature, attempt to set the bit in the MSR. If the writing
succeeds, the feature is available. Otherwise, the feature is not
supported on this platform.

And the enumeration happens before SMP so all processors can use
enumerated result when SMP boots.
