To avoid the above code duplication, I would have this instead:

#ifdef CONFIG_TICKET_LOCK_QUEUED

bool tkt_spin_pass(arch_spinlock_t *ap, struct __raw_tickets inc);
#define __TKT_SPIN_INC 2

#else

static inline bool tkt_spin_pass(arch_spinlock_t *ap, struct
__raw_tickets inc)
{
return false;
}

#define __TKT_SPIN_INC 1

#endif

static __always_inline void __ticket_spin_lock(arch_spinlock_t *lock)
{
register struct __raw_tickets inc = { .tail = __TKT_SPIN_INC };

inc = xadd(&lock->tickets, inc);

for (;;) {
if (inc.head == inc.tail || tkt_spin_pass(lock, inc))
break;
cpu_relax();
inc.head = ACCESS_ONCE(lock->tickets.head);
}
barrier; /* make sure nothing creeps before the lock is taken */
}
