x86/split_lock: Bits in IA32_CORE_CAPABILITIES are not architectural
The Intel Software Developers' Manual erroneously listed bit 5 of the IA32_CORE_CAPABILITIES register as an architectural feature. It is not. Features enumerated by IA32_CORE_CAPABILITIES are model specific and implementation details may vary in different cpu models. Thus it is only safe to trust features after checking the CPU model. Icelake client and server models are known to implement the split lock detect feature even though they don't enumerate IA32_CORE_CAPABILITIES [ tglx: Use switch() for readability and massage comments ] Fixes: 6650cdd9a8cc ("x86/split_lock: Enable split lock detection by kernel") Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200416205754.21177-3-tony.luck@intel.com
