Scare Crowe 2a709f28fa Auto exploit mitigation feature
* 0day explit mitigation
* Memory corruption prevention
* Privilege escalation prevention
* Buffer over flow prevention
* File System corruption defense
* Thread escape prevention

This may very well be the most intensive inclusion to BrooklynR. This will not be part of an x86 suite nor it will be released as tool kit. The security core toolkit will remain part of kernel base.

/*
prefetch(x) attempts to pre-emptively get the memory pointed to
by address "x" into the CPU L1 cache.
prefetch(x) should not cause any kind of exception, prefetch(0) is
specifically ok.
prefetch() should be defined by the architecture, if not, the
#define below provides a no-op define.
There are 3 prefetch() macros:
prefetch(x) - prefetches the cacheline at "x" for read
prefetchw(x) - prefetches the cacheline at "x" for write
spin_lock_prefetch(x) - prefetches the spinlock *x for taking
there is also PREFETCH_STRIDE which is the architecure-preferred
"lookahead" size for prefetching streamed operations.
