Konstantin Belousov 2dec2b4a34 amd64: flush L1 data cache on syscall return with an error.
The knob allows to select the flushing mode or turn it off/on.  The
idea, as well as the list of the ignored syscall errors, were taken
from https://www.openwall.com/lists/kernel-hardening/2018/10/11/10 .

I was not able to measure statistically significant difference between
flush enabled vs disabled using syscall_timing getuid.
