I wonder if something may be wrong with the definition and use of __m
for u64 accesses. The code below also fixes the build problem.

But then I really don't know what

struct __large_struct { unsigned long buf[100]; };
#define __m(x) (*(struct __large_struct __user *)(x))

is supposed to be doing in the first place, and I still don't understand
why the problem only shows up with CONFIG_MMU=n.
