        <div>
        <pre>clear_cache for ARM is calling abort() when start address is not a NULL
pointer. clear_cache documentation in libgcc does not specify any aborting
behavior. Libgcc implementation does not do abort either.

Calling abort for a non-null start address does not make any sense either and
libgcc docs do not say that the start argument has to be NULL.

This issue was discovered when compiler-rt was enabled for ChromeOS and NaCl
failed since it was making calls to __builtin___clear_cache()
