What about just adding 'u' to the end of the offset? Say you have a data structure in kernel space that has a field in user space you want to reference?
field_val=+8u(+0(%si))
Ah, that looks good :~) thank you for this idea!

Hmm, I wonder if we should make it +u8 or u+8? as +8u may be confused as unsigned? Like 8ULL. I don't know. Kernel developers suck at naming :-p
I like +u8 since it is easier to implement :-p.
Thank you,
