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
