yes.

on first glance i haven't found any code that uses get_user with 64-bit
quantities. if you have a specific need for this, please let me know.

in the mean time, i've checked in support for put_user with 64-bit
values. This is in 2.4.19-pa24

Let me know if this works for you. i've tested it only lightly.
