mm, slub: use prefetchw instead of prefetch 

upstream commit id: 04b4b00613

Commit 0ad9500e16 ("slub: prefetch next freelist pointer in
slab_alloc()") introduced prefetch_freepointer() because when other
cpu(s) freed objects into a page that current cpu owns, the freelist
link is hot on cpu(s) which freed objects and possibly very cold on
current cpu.

But if freelist link chain is hot on cpu(s) which freed objects, it's
better to invalidate that chain because they're not going to access
again within a short time.

So use prefetchw instead of prefetch.  On supported architectures like
x86 and arm, it invalidates other copied instances of a cache line when
prefetching it.
