Why do we need this? Also, we presumably would prefer not to have it
when we end up using ticket spinlocks when combo spinlocks is selected.
Is there no way to avoid it?

Maybe some text recommending combo spinlocks here? As it stands it sounds
like enabling queued spinlocks is a bad idea for anybody that doesn't know
what platforms will run the kernel they're building, which is all distros.

We need asm/jump_label.h instead of asm/alternative.h, but...

...do you know what impact this inlined static key check has on the
kernel size?

Actually, why not use ALTERNATIVE with any nonzero cpufeature value.
Then add code to riscv_cpufeature_patch_check() to return true when
qspinlocks should be enabled (based on the value of some global set
during riscv_spinlock_init)?

I'm not sure what's better/worse, but instead of inventing this
__no_arch_spinlock_redefine thing we could just name all the functions
something like __arch_spin* and then add defines for both to asm/spinlock.h,
i.e.

#define queued_spin_lock(l) __arch_spin_lock(l)
...

#define ticket_spin_lock(l) __arch_spin_lock(l)
...

Besides not having to touch asm-generic/qspinlock.h and
asm-generic/ticket_spinlock.h it allows one to find the implementations
a bit easier as following a tag to arch_spin_lock() will take them to
queued_spin_lock() which will then take them to
arch/riscv/include/asm/spinlock.h and there they'll figure out how
__arch_spin_lock() was defined.
