For make O=dir run_tests to work, test scripts from sub-directories
need to be copied over to the object directory. Running tests from the
object directory is necessary to avoid making the source tree dirty.

/*
	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.
