Great, I saw that:

static __always_inline void ticket_unlock(arch_spinlock_t *lock)
{
     u16 *ptr = (u16 *)lock + __is_defined(__BIG_ENDIAN);
//__is_defined(__BIG_ENDIAN) would be zero for openrisc.

Using CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN is correct, Arnd has also asked me using
CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN in compat.h:
