Yes, I think it suits best in the generic Kconfig.

Something like this on top of patch#1:

diff --git a/mm/Kconfig b/mm/Kconfig
index de3a7b5ed216..febf805000f8 100644
--- a/mm/Kconfig
+++ b/mm/Kconfig
@@ -185,7 +185,8 @@ config MEMORY_HOTREMOVE

config MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY

- depends on SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP && ARCH_MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY_ENABLE
+ depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG && SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP
+ depends on ARCH_MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY_ENABLE

And then this patch would be:

diff --git a/arch/x86/Kconfig b/arch/x86/Kconfig
index 2792879d398e..9f0211df1746 100644
--- a/arch/x86/Kconfig

@@ -2433,6 +2433,9 @@ config ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE
def_bool y
depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG

+config ARCH_MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY_ENABLE
+ def_bool y

because MEMORY_HOTPLUG already depends on 64 bits.

And the same would go for the arm64 one.

Better?
