I would prefer you move the various RWSEM_* count bit macros from
kernel/locking/rwsem.c to under the !PREEMPT_RT block and directly use
RWSEM_WRITER_LOCKED instead of hardcoding a value of 1.
Just to be clear, you want the ~50 lines from:

/*
* On 64-bit architectures, the bit definitions of the count are:
...
#define RWSEM_READ_FAILED_MASK (RWSEM_WRITER_MASK|RWSEM_FLAG_WAITERS|\
RWSEM_FLAG_HANDOFF|RWSEM_FLAG_READFAIL)

moved from rwsem.c to rwsem.h?

Or just these four lines:

#define RWSEM_WRITER_LOCKED (1UL << 0)
#define RWSEM_FLAG_WAITERS (1UL << 1)
#define RWSEM_FLAG_HANDOFF (1UL << 2)
#define RWSEM_FLAG_READFAIL (1UL << (BITS_PER_LONG - 1))

I think just the first 3 lines will be enough. Maybe a bit of comment about these bit flags in the count atomic_long value.

Cheers,
