Subject: [PATCH v5 08/18] x86/split_lock: Define MSR TEST_CTL register

Setting bit 29 in MSR TEST_CTL register 0x33 enables split lock issue
detection and clearing the bit disables split lock issue detection.

Define the MSR and the bit. The definitions will be used in enabling or
disabling split lock detection.
