[PATCH 2/2] x86/split_lock: Drop cpu_model_supports_sld
Posted by Xiaoyao Li 1 month, 3 weeks ago
cpu_model_supports_sld was introduced to indicate whether the CPU on
which the kernel runs supports split lock detection, because at that
time X86_FEATURE_SPLIT_LOCK_DETECT was inadequate since it was set only
when sld_state was sld_warn or sld_fatal.

Now, the semantics of X86_FEATURE_SPLIT_LOCK_DETECT have changed and it
can serve exactly the same purpose of cpu_model_supports_sld.

Drop cpu_model_supports_sld and use X86_FEATURE_SPLIT_LOCK_DETECT
instead.
