When the destination of an atomic memory operation located in 2
cache lines, it is called a Splitlock Access. LOCK# bus signal is
asserted for splitlock access which may lead to long latency. #AC
for Splitlock Access is a CPU feature, it allows rise alignment
check exception #AC(0) instead of asserting LOCK#, that is helpful
to detect Splitlock Access.
This feature is enumerated by MSR(0xcf) IA32_CORE_CAPABILITIES[bit5]
Add helper function:
bool has_core_cap(uint32_t bitmask)
