Yes, t0 and t1 are #define's, so they don't work in inline asm.
Also, you should clobber them if you use them directly, i.e.
__asm(" ldq $1, %1\n" (suggested by Peter I think)
"1: ldq_l $1, %1\n"
" mov %2, $2\n"
" stq_c $2, %1\n"
" beq $2, 1b\n"
" stq $1, %0\n"
: "+m" (*res) : "m" (*dst), "r" (val) : "memory", "$1", "$2");
