Ah, I forgot to change this description. And thank you pointing out the 
typo.

The answer is no.
Based on this patch, guest cannot detect a forced fatal mode since no 
SPLIT_LOCK_DETECT_STICKY bit implemented. Guest thinks it can set/clear 
the bit but kvm makes the hardware bit forced set when vcpu is running.

BTW, even without SPLIT_LOCK_DETECT_STICKY bit, there is a way for guest 
to detect it's forced on that rdmsr() after wrmsr(..., SLD bit) to check 
whether the bit is cleared. But this solution is not architectural, so 
we'll try to push the way to add SPLIT_LOCK_DETECT_STICKY/LOCK bit.
