Subject: [PATCH] linux-next drm_cache.c: fix compilation error

When compiling drm_cache.c on ia64, gcc reports undefined
drm_clflush_ipi_handler() error. The problem is because drm_cache_ipi_handler is
a typo.

One straightforward fix is changing drm_cache_ipi_handler to
drm_clflush_ipi_handler.

But since drm_clflush_ipi_handler() does nothing on non-x86 platforms and ipi
handling is costly, it would be better to just do nothing on non-x86 platforms
and remove drm_clflush_ipi_handler() for those platforms.
