Huh?  linux/types.h already brings in BITS_PER_LONG.  Look:

linux/types.h
  uapi/linux/types.h
  uapi/asm/types.h
  uapi/asm-generic/types.h
  uapi/asm-generic/int-ll64.h
  asm/bitsperlong.h

This is a funny way to spell 'unsigned long' ...

Let's move that to the header file and make it a static inline.  That way
it doesn't need to be an EXPORT_SYMBOL.

Also, I think the kerneldoc could do with a bit of work.  Try this:

/**
 * xxhash() - calculate wordsize hash of the input with a given seed
 * @input:  The data to hash.
 * @length: The length of the data to hash.
 * @seed:   The seed can be used to alter the result predictably.
 *
 * If the hash does not need to be comparable between machines with
 * different word sizes, this function will call whichever of xxh32()
 * or xxh64() is faster.
 *
 * Return:  wordsize hash of the data.
 */
static inline
unsigned long xxhash(const void *input, size_t length, unsigned long seed)
{
#if BITS_PER_LONG == 64
	return xxh64(input, length, seed);
#else
	return xxh32(input, length, seed);
#endif
}
