Merge tag 'x86_splitlock_for_6.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 splitlock updates from Dave Hansen:
"Add a sysctl to control the split lock misery mode.
This enables users to reduce the penalty inflicted on split lock
users. There are some proprietary, binary-only games which became
entirely unplayable with the old penalty.
Anyone opting into the new mode is, of course, more exposed to the DoS
nasitness inherent with split locks, but they can play their games
again"
