istallion.c:4895: confused by earlier errors, bailing out

The compile works if the kernel is configured as generic as opposed to Wildfire.

 Hi,
 
 not quite sure what's going on, but the problem is still there in gcc
 version 3.4 20030203. Here's a smaller testcase:
 
 extern inline void copy_tofrom_user(long len)
 {
     register long pv asm("$27") = 0;
     register long cu_from asm("$7") = 0;
     asm volatile ("" : "=r"(len), "=r"(cu_from), "=r"(pv)
 		     : "0"(len), "1"(cu_from), "2"(pv));
 }
 
 static void stli_memread(int *brdp) {    
     copy_tofrom_user(1 % *brdp);
 }
 
 Looks like some conflict between the divmod pattern and the $27 asm.
