>Description:
The prefetch instruction case used in sparc.md
for locality==3 is wrong, prefetch page does something
totally different from the other prefetch types.
It prefetches TLB translations, it doesn't bring
any data into the data caches of the processor.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Change locality==3 case in sparc.md's prefetch instruction
to use prefetch function 0 for reads and 2 for writes.

>Unformatted:
