You are right. It is already there. I never see it before because my ctags
get confused about the context annotation:

void __lockfunc _spin_lock(spinlock_t *lock)            __acquires(lock); 

It generate tags for "lock" instead of "_spin_lock".

When I look up _spin_lock, it only shows the UP version. I never see
the SMP version of the _spin_lock.

Exactly why I want to have a ctags from sparse.
