Subject: [PATCH 2/2] prefetch: Add ARCH_HAS_PREFETCH definition when the architecture is not defined

From: Youling Tang <tangyouling@...inos.cn>

After commit ab483570a13b ("x86 & generic: change to __builtin_prefetch()"), the
__builtin_prefetch implementation will be used by default, so add its definition
to return to a state similar to before commit[1].

Currently prefetch_range() will be empty implemented under the x86_64 architecture,
there was a concrete implementation before "x86 & generic: change to
__builtin_prefetch()", so fix it.

No similar changes have been made to ARCH_HAS_PREFETCHW at this time.

Fixes: ab483570a13b ("x86 & generic: change to __builtin_prefetch()")
