Well there is no constraint for reg+reg*N really. You should do:
  asm /* reading has side-effects in hardware */ volatile (
                "movl %1, %0"
                : /* output operands */ "=r" ( value )
                : /* input operands */ "m" ( *(address + index) )
                : /* clobbers */
        );


This will be the correct way of expressing it and not to mention will produce
the code you want.  Though you might as well just do:
unsigned __attribute__((regparm(2)))
asm_read_mapped_register( unsigned* address, unsigned long index )
{
  volatile *unsigned a = address + index;
  return *a;
}

---- CUT -----
The constraint r just means register and nothing else can match it.
