First of all, did you verify that this actually makes a difference?
Please post the actual assembly output with and without this patch.

If it does make a difference, you should avoid doing ifdefs as they
are more likely to cause build failures.  Instead do something like

		if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_64BIT))
			len -= sizeof(u32);
