[$] VMX virtualization runs afoul of split-lock detection
One of the many features merged for the 5.7 kernel is split-lock detection for the x86 architecture.This feature has encountered a fair amount ofcontroversy over the course of its development, with the result thatthe time between its initial posting and appearance in a released kernelwill end up being over two years.
