Maybe we can just make ARCH_USE_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS
user visible and give users the choice between the two generic
implementations across all architectures that support the qspinlock
variant.

In arch/riscv, you'd then just have a

select ARCH_HAVE_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS

diff --git a/arch/riscv/include/asm/spinlock.h
b/arch/riscv/include/asm/spinlock.h

Along the same lines:

I think I'd prefer the header changes to be done in the asm-generic
version of this file, so this can be shared across all architectures
that want to give the choice between ticket and queued spinlock.
