User wants to specify how to set up #AC for split lock at boot time.

CONFIG_SPLIT_LOCK_AC_ENABLE_DEFAULT is added to control split
lock setting at boot time.

Default value is 2: Don't explicitly enable or disable #AC for split lock.
Inherit setting of #AC for split lock from firmware.

Value 0 to explicitly disable split lock at boot time.

Value 1 to explicitly enable split lock at boot time.
