Hey All,
Actually Pavan provided some feedback to add prefetch1 and prefetch2 variants:
https://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2020-September/thread.html#180501
I can push a v3 with those changes later today, will CC folks here.

Typically DPDK coding standards is to have
static inline void
rte_prefetch0_write(const void *p)
vs
static inline void rte_prefetch0_write(const void *p)

There was a small comment from Jerin.
Those are new functions and should be marked as experimental.
Please add a call to those in test_prefetch.c.
Please update the release notes.
Thanks.

This commit adds new rte_prefetchX_write() variants, that suggest to the
compiler to use a prefetch instruction with intention to write. As a
compiler builtin, the compiler can choose based on compilation target
what the best implementation for this instruction is.
Three versions are provided, targeting the different levels of cache.

v3:
- Add reviewed by tags from Jerin and Ruifeng, thanks!
- Add __rte_experimental as they are new functions (David)
This required adding the rte_compat.h include.
- Rework return type to new line (Jerin)
- Add calls in test_prefetch.c to new functions (David)
- Add item to release notes (David)
v2:
- Add L1, L2, and L3 variants as ARM64 uarch supports them (Pavan)
The integer constants passed to the builtin are not available as
a #define value, and doing #defines just for this write variant
does not seems a nice solution to me... particularly for those using
IDEs where any #define value is auto-hinted for code-completion.
