Ravi Bangoria 408eb7417a x86/bus_lock: Add support for AMD
Add Bus Lock Detect (called Bus Lock Trap in AMD docs) support for AMD
platforms. Bus Lock Detect is enumerated with CPUID Fn0000_0007_ECX_x0
bit [24 / BUSLOCKTRAP]. It can be enabled through MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR.
When enabled, hardware clears DR6[11] and raises a #DB exception on
occurrence of Bus Lock if CPL > 0. More detail about the feature can be
found in AMD APM[1].
