I wanted to look into this further, because I wasn't (yet) sure if it was  a bug
or not, but from what I can see x86_64 doesn't define ARCH_HAS_PREFECTH.  That
makes prefetch_range() a nop (I confirmed this via objdump).  It seems like we
should either define ARCH_HAS_PREFETCH on x86_64, or we should remove the
#ifdef from prefetch_range
