Re: bzero.S and assym.h (Re: CVS commit: syssrc/sys/lib/libkern/arch/powerpc)

It's only needed because bzero needs to know the cache line
size for optimized bzeroing. As this is a PPC specificum, I'm
not sure it is worth the bother to invent a MI mechanism for it.

I wasn't aware that libkern is (can be) used outside of kernel
source. Is it? If so, then yes, we'd need to think about some
way to get at that number.
