// No need to flush the instruction cache on Intel. On Intel instruction
// cache flushing is only necessary when multiple cores running the same
// code simultaneously. V8 (and JavaScript) is single threaded and when code
// is patched on an intel CPU the core performing the patching will have its
// own instruction cache updated automatically.
// If flushing of the instruction cache becomes necessary Windows has the
// API function FlushInstructionCache.
// By default, valgrind only checks the stack for writes that might need to
// invalidate already cached translated code. This leads to random
// instability when code patches or moves are sometimes unnoticed. One
// solution is to run valgrind with --smc-check=all, but this comes at a big
// performance cost. We can notify valgrind to invalidate its cache.
