  19        prefetch(x) attempts to pre-emptively get the memory pointed to
  20        by address "x" into the CPU L1 cache. 
  21        prefetch(x) should not cause any kind of exception, prefetch(0) is
  22        specifically ok.
  23
  24        prefetch() should be defined by the architecture, if not, the 
  25        #define below provides a no-op define.  
  26        
  27        There are 3 prefetch() macros:
  28        
  29        prefetch(x)     - prefetches the cacheline at "x" for read
  30        prefetchw(x)    - prefetches the cacheline at "x" for write
  31        spin_lock_prefetch(x) - prefetches the spinlock *x for taking
  32        
  33        there is also PREFETCH_STRIDE which is the architecure-preferred 
  34        "lookahead" size for prefetching streamed operations.
