I'm not sure why what goes where... e.g. rte_branch_prediction.h and rte_bitops.h are not in include/generic.

But I agree that keeping lock implementations in the same location makes sense.

Also, other lock implementations have their init() function in their header file, so you could consider getting rid of the C file. I don't care, just mentioning it.

A spinlock and a ticket lock have the same size, so there is no memory cost either.

Unless using a ticket lock stands in the way for future extensions to the seqlock library, then it seems like a good idea.

Did anyone object to adding the __attribute__((warn_unused_result))?

Otherwise, I think you should add it.
