I found out the asssembler doesn't reckognize the prefetch instruction of
the K6-II,K6-III,and probably Athlon. Since a prefetch instruction is a
good thing, built in support would be of interest also for other people.
Which version of the assembler are you looking at? I see support for
a few different prefetch instructions in the development sources.
If the prefetch instruction that you want is not in there, I encourage
you to add it to include/opcode/i386.h and send in the patch.
