That line doesn't need splitting.

Can't you use the same test as 64bit?
Both int and long wave size 4 - so the test is fine.

I think I'd try to get the type name into the error message.
Either ##t or STR(t) should be right.

Isn't that missing the memory reference?
It either needs a extra memory parameter for 'ptr' or
a full/partial memory clobber.

I think replacing all that with:
typeof(*ptr) ___p1; \
if (sizeof(*ptr) == sizeof(int)) \
___p1 = ___smp_load_reservedN("w", ptr); \
else if (sizeof(*ptr) == sizeof(long)) \
___p1 = ___smp_load_reservedN("d", ptr); \
else
compiletime_assert(1, \
"Need type compatible with LR/SC instructions.");
Might make it easier to read.

Isn't that identical to __smp_load_reserved_relaxed()?
No point replicating it.
