I also made this same change locally when testing, and building with GCC 11.1.0
or LLVM 14.0.0 I am not seeing any problem when building, and the result is as
expected:

As above, I'm not seeing this.

This suggests that the EX_DATA_REG() macro is going wrong somehow. Assuming the
operand types correspond to the LHS and RHS of the expression, this would mean
the GPR number is defined, but the REG value is not, and I can't currently see
how that can happen.

> "<<" is invalid operands in assembly, is there something wrong with me?

At the moment I can only assume there is a local problem. I'd suspect a typo
somewhere, but maybe you have a toolchain which behaves differently?

Thanks,
Mark.
