x86: reintroduce volatile keyword in prototype to clflush()
The volatile keyword was removed from the clflush() prototype in commit e34907a; the comment there states: x86: remove volatile keyword from clflush. the p parameter is an explicit memory reference, and is enough to prevent gcc to being nasty here. The volatile seems completely not needed. This reflects incorrect understanding of the function of the volatile keyword there. The purpose of the volatile keyword is informing gcc that it is safe to pass a volatile pointer to this function. Signed-off-by: H.
