gru: fix prefetch and speculation bugs
Fix several bugs related to prefetch, ordering & speculation: - GRU cch_allocate() instruction causes cacheable memory to be created. Add a barriers to prevent speculation from prefetching data before it exists. - Add memory barriers before cache-flush instructions to ensure that previously stored data is included in the line flushed to memory.
