Adobe released the 64-bit repo relatively recently, this dependency was 
not unique to SL.

Take a look in your /etc/yum.repos.d/adobe*.repo file(s).  Make sure you 
are enabling the proper x86_64 repo to locate the 64-bit plugin (the 
arch will be part of the baseurl path), for example:

yum --enablerepo=adobe-linux-x86_64 search flash-plugin
yum --enablerepo=adobe-linux-x86_64 install flash-plugin.x86_64
