That one is silly. The config switch is in the x86 KConfig file, so X86 is
on. If you intended to move this to some generic place outside of
x86/Kconfig then this should be

config ARCH_HAS_MEM_ENCRYPT
	bool

and x86/Kconfig should have

    	select ARCH_HAS_MEM_ENCRYPT

and that should be selected by AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT
