It has nothing to do with "cleanness".
As I mentioned, I think but am not entirely sure, that this cache control is not in FreeBSD/i386 either.
However, it is possible that either I am wrong about that (don't think so) or that this is architecture-dependent, that NVidia wants control over the CPU cache that only exist in amd64 and has no equivalent in i386.
Maybe Zander can give an official word?
