I would prefer using the __BITS_PER_LONG == 64 check directly, because it gives you a warning when __BITS_PER_LONG is undefined, whereas the #ifdef check gets easily fooled by include order problems. Note that this is not a problem in the kernel for CONFIG_* symbols which are always defined before the first #include.
