Ok, thanks for confirming. If you could put your .config somewhere that
would be helpful, since the build fails for me with defconfig.

Aha: arc seems to have separate spinlocks for protecting bitops and atomics.
This is a seriously bad idea, because you only implement some of the bitops
API in the architecture and rely on asm-generic to give you bitops/lock.h,
assuming that it's going to be implemented in terms of the other parts of
the bitops API (it isn't anymore).
Here's a quick hack (totally untested, since I can't even build an arc kernel)
which moves arc over to asm-generic for all of the bitops API and ditches
the bitops lock. You could probably also drop the ffs() stuff, but I'll
leave that up to you. The "downside" is serialisation between bitops and
atomics, but I actually think you probably want that for xchg/cmpxchg
anyway.
