I could take this #ifdef away. I just need to add a default version that always return 0.

The #ifdef is harder to take away here. The point is that doing a 32-bit exchange may accidentally steal the lock with the additional code to handle that. Doing a 16-bit exchange, on the other hand, will never steal the lock and so don't need the extra handling code. I could construct a function with different return values to handle the different cases if you think it will make the code easier to read.

Are you referring to the case (qcode != my_qcode)? This condition will be true if more than one tasks have queued up.
