Bug 16560 – [Mir] Prefetch intrinsics like in LDC

Link to documentation on the LDC prefetch intrisics please?

Found it: http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#llvm-prefetch-intrinsic

Copy-past from GitHub Wow, that was fast! Nitpicks: LLVM parameter is missing. This is not used now, but likely be used in the future. For example intel CPU has non shared L1 / L2 caches. If GDC BE has not this feature, it can just ignore it. Only __prefetch should be presented, and it would be nice to have it as a part of the language instead of DRuntime hack. Making it a function breaks final fastmath optimization for LDC. So, only real intrinsics should be provided for user without any function shells. Underscored __names looks good to me. Also this will help to BetterC mode. A clean API without encodings is required for __prefetch in context of (2).
