For the record, I have tested this change on SpacemiT K3 Pico-ITX.

The stress test is run by enabling CONFIG_LOCK_TORTURE_TEST=y then
boots the kernel with:

locktorture.torture_type=spin_lock locktorture.nwriters_stress=16

driving all 8 harts. It survived sustained torture [ran for ~10 minutes]
with 0 Fail.

... ...
[ 735.588947] torture_spin_lock_write_delay: delay = 25 jiffies.
[ 738.015096] torture_spin_lock_write_delay: delay = 25 jiffies.
[ 739.204713] torture_spin_lock_write_delay: delay = 25 jiffies.
[ 741.195211] Writes: Total: 714319420 Max/Min: 45946599/43679876 Fail: 0
