The interface /sys/device/system/cpu/split_lock_detect is added
to allow user to control split lock detection and show current split
lock detection setting.

Writing 1 to the file enables split lock detection and writing 0
disables split lock detection. Split lock detection is enabled or
disabled on all CPUs.

Reading the file shows current global split lock detection setting:
disabled when 0 and enabled when 1.

Please note the interface only shows global setting. During run time,
split lock detection on one CPU may be disabled if split lock
in kernel code happens on the CPU. The interface doesn't show split
lock detection status on individual CPU. User can run rdmsr on 0x33
to check split lock detection on each CPU.

Did I miss the Documentation/ for this new sysfs feature?

I don't have a doc for the interface.

Should I create a new file in Documentation/ or can I add the interface
doc in an existing doc file?

Thanks.

I'd suggest spending a few minutes familiarizing yourself with
Documentation/.  Maybe you can even grep for some other similar files in
there and see if those are documented.
