x86/split_lock: Enable the split lock feature on Raptor Lake (2022-05-04 12:11:25 +0200)
----------------------------------------------------------------
- Add Raptor Lake to the set of CPU models which support splitlock
- Make life miserable for apps using split locks by slowing them down
considerably while the rest of the system remains responsive. The hope
is it will hurt more and people will really fix their misaligned locks
apps. As a result, free a TIF bit.
