Contiguous prefetch bytes (scalar index)
Contiguous prefetch of byte elements from the memory address generated by a 64-bit scalar base and scalar index which is added to the base address. After each element prefetch the index value is incremented, but the index register is not updated.
The predicate may be used to suppress prefetches from unwanted addresses.
