[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v12 1/6] drm: Add arch arm64 for drm_clflush_virt_range

Ah, thanks for pointing that out, when I do include it though, it causes 
a few warning other systems such as h8300 and s390.

Since it is already pulled is, would it be OK to leave it out for this 
case? Or we could use something like !IS_H8300 and !IS_S390

around the header file?
