Subject[PATCH v5 5/9] kvm: x86: Emulate split-lock access as a write
Date
If split lock detect is on (warn/fatal), #AC handler calls die() when
split lock happens in kernel.

Malicous guest can exploit the KVM emulator to trigger split lock #AC
in kernel[1]. So just emulating the access as a write if it's a
split-lock access (the same as access spans page) to avoid malicious
attacking kernel.

More discussion can be found [2][3].
