Please don't place arm64-specific assembly in drivers, and use the APIs
the architecture provides. We have a suite of cache maintenance APIs,
and abstractions atop of those that make them easier to deal with.

This patch pushes the code further from being acceptable outside of
staging.

It doesn't make sense to me to clean+invalidate an arbitrary amount of
data, then prefetch an arbitrary amount. What exactly is this code
trying to do?

If this is intended to make data visible to a non-coherent observer, a
clean would be sufficient.

If this is intended to make data from a non-coherent master visible to
the CPUs, then an invalidate would be sufficient.

In either case, we *must* take the cache line size, and the size of the
data into account. If the same cache line is being modified by multiple
observers, this will corrupt the data in some cases.

Architecturally cache maintenance requires particular memory barriers,
which are missing here and/or in callers. At best, this works by chance.

The existing cache maintenance APIs handle this, and all you need to do
here is to ensure suitable alignment and padding. Please don't write
your own cache maintenance like this.

Thanks,
Mark.
