The 64-bit __get_user_u64()/__put_user_u64() paths address the memory
operand as %T2 (base+4). This base+4 requires an offsettable address,
but "m" also allows the indexed mode @(R0,Rn) (e.g. for a variable-
indexed array element), which has no displacement field for the +4.
Depending on optimization this build fails with "invalid 'asm'" or an
ICE in GCC's change_address_1.
Require an offsettable memory operand, allowing GCC to reload an
unsuitable indexed address into an appropriate form.
Fixes: 2d2b308a8b7d ("sh: Implement __get_user_u64() required for 64-bit get_user()")

The patch was verified on the J2 core on the Mimas v2 board. And booted
on the Dreamcast SH4. checkpatch doesn't like the missing whitespaces
around : I preferred not to touch the other unrelated lines, so I kept
the local style.
The original GCC ICE, without this patch can be seen here:

Nice catch, thanks a lot for fixing this!

An alternative would be to pass 'addr' and 'addr + 4' separately so that
the C compilation adds in the offset.
With a bit more effort the define wouldn't need repeating for LE and BE.
There is a bug in the __put_user_u64 code - it is missing the exception
table entry for the second word.
(It is present in __get_user_u64, but a separate label would be better.)
I also wonder whether there should be non-mmu copies?
