[PATCH] x86/bus_lock: Don't assume the init value of DEBUGCTLMSR.BUS_LOCK_DETECT to be zero

From: Chenyi Qiang
Date: Wed Sep 01 2021 - 04:35:46 EST


It's possible that BIOS/firmware has set DEBUGCTLMSR_BUS_LOCK_DETECT, or
this kernel has been kexec'd from a kernel that enabled bus lock
detection.

Disable bus lock detection explicitly if not wanted.
