I used a different function name intentionally so the check for 'guest
want's split lock #AC' can go there as well once it's sorted.

I think the right thing to do here is to make this really independent of
that feature, i.e. inject the exception if

 (CPL==3 && CR0.AM && EFLAGS.AC) || (FUTURE && (GUEST_TEST_CTRL & SLD))

iow. when its really clear that the guest asked for it. If there is an
actual #AC with SLD disabled and !(CPL==3 && CR0.AM && EFLAGS.AC) then
something is badly wrong and the thing should just die. That's why I
separated handle_guest_split_lock() and tell about that case.

Thanks,
