And why do you want to do that on every scm_call() invocation and on
every loop of that code? If your dcache_line_size() changes at
runtime, then you might have other problems.
I definitely don't want to do it for every loop. I'm fine with getting
it every scm_call() invocation though.

For now, I'll pull the end and cacheline_size variables out of the
do-while loop.
Why not do it correct right away and retrieve it in an __init
function?

Thanks,
