cl_flush() and sb() only works for i386 and x86_64 in fill_buf.c, so on aarch64 both compile to empty function. mem_flush() walks the buffer calling no-op cl_flush() per cache line and finishes with a no-op sb(), leaving any caller that expects a flushed buffer, e.g. CMT, L3_CAT operating on unflushed state with no warning.
Add code block for aarch64 using the ARM equivalents * "dc civac, %0" for cl_flush() * "dsb sy" for sb() Both are EL0-accessible on Linux aarch64.
