[PATCH v6 2/8] x86/split_lock: Avoid runtime reads of the TEST_CTRL MSR

[Xiaoyao Li <xiaoyao.li@intel.com>]

In a context switch from a task that is detecting split locks
to one that is not (or vice versa) we need to update the TEST_CTRL
MSR. Currently this is done with the common sequence:
	read the MSR
	flip the bit
	write the MSR
in order to avoid changing the value of any reserved bits in the MSR.

Cache unused and reserved bits of TEST_CTRL MSR with SPLIT_LOCK_DETECT
bit cleared during initialization, so we can avoid an expensive RDMSR
instruction during context switch.
