In my feedback I said to remove that check from
sparc's asm/spinlock_types.h header.

Which you do in patch #2

But that means this patch #1 here is no longer necessary, since we
conform to the hearder scheme used by other architectures using queued
locks.

So please remove this patch from the series.

Thank you.
