x86/split-lock: Remove unused TIF_SLD bit

Changes to the "warn" mode of split lock handling mean that TIF_SLD is never set. Remove the bit, and the functions that use it. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
