How about doing: xhlocks_idx++ ? That is, keep all the indexes as
regular u32 and only reduce the space when using them as index.

Also, I would write the loop:

like:

#define xhlock(i)       current->xhlocks[i % MAX_XHLOCKS_NR]

        for (i = 0; i < MAX_XHLOCKS_NR; i++) {
                xhlock = xhlock(curr->xhlock_idx - i);

                /* ... */
        }

That avoids that horrible xhlock_prev() thing.
