* Test code to force cache flushes anytime a flush could happen.
*
* If used with CLOBBER_FREED_MEMORY, CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS provides a
* fairly thorough test that the system contains no cache-flush hazards.
* However, it also makes the system unbelievably slow --- the regression
* tests take about 100 times longer than normal.
*
* If you're a glutton for punishment, try CLOBBER_CACHE_RECURSIVELY.
* This slows things by at least a factor of 10000, so I wouldn't suggest
* trying to run the entire regression tests that way. It's useful to
* try a few simple tests, to make sure that cache reload isn't subject
* to internal cache-flush hazards, but after you've done a few thousand
* recursive reloads it's unlikely you'll learn more.
