Using __builtin_prefetch everywhere

[Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>]

Hallo,

Since there were some issues with the x86-64 prefetch I decided
to switch the standard prefetch over to gcc's __builtin_prefetch.
Since gcc supports this on all architectures I did that change
for everybody: if you don't define a ARCH_HAS_PREFETCH it will
use __builtin_prefetch(x) and the same with ARCH_HAS_PREFETCHW.

If you know of any problems with the __builtin_prefetch
(e.g. gcc miscompiling it) please complain now. The right fix
would be then to define a ARCH_HAS_PREFETCH{,w}

Use __builtin_prefetch 

gcc 3.2+ supports __builtin_prefetch, so it's possible to use it on all architectures.
Change the generic fallback in linux/prefetch.h to use it instead of noping it out.
gcc should do the right thing when the architecture doesn't support prefetching

Undefine the x86-64 inline assembler version and use the fallback.
