 I also dislike this, but this is the best thing i could invent. This is 
dictated by put_user() and
get_user(), which rely on typeof() of their arguments. Well, i could do some 
castings, but they are
no less ugly, and would give more headache to bigendian systems.
However, what about doing the same thing as GET/SET_ONE_REG does by just 
assuming that everything is
64-bit wide? This would automatically resolve two other issues you have 
commented on. By the way,
handling it in userspace would also be simpler.
