I thought we had decided not to support this for 32-bit because x86_32
had problems here as well:

#ifdef CONFIG_X86_32
#define __get_user_asm_u64(x, ptr, retval, errret)      (x) = __get_user_bad()
#define __get_user_asm_ex_u64(x, ptr)                   (x) = __get_user_bad()
#else
#define __get_user_asm_u64(x, ptr, retval, errret) \
         __get_user_asm(x, ptr, retval, "q", "", "=r", errret)
#define __get_user_asm_ex_u64(x, ptr) \
         __get_user_asm_ex(x, ptr, "q", "", "=r")
#endif
