[patch] implement __clear_cache for arm32 & mips

[Narayan Kamath]

Isn't that a separate discussion ? I.e, I think we need both
__clear_cache and the corresponding builtin.

gcc has a __clear_cache in libgcc as well, though it isn't clear
to me if it ever emits calls to that methods or whether the builtin
can handle all architectures that it supports.
