 Is it really the case?  Perhaps it doesn't know the symbolic name of the 
register which has only been added recently.  Replacing it with $31 should 
fix the problem, but your patch is obviously correct regardless.

 The code is broken anyway -- I've tried fixing it, but I've hit 
shortcomings of macros in <asm/addrspace.h> (I've got working code, but 
GCC complains loudly), so it may yet take a while.
