Basically, arch/x86/coco/Makefile is never processed if arch/x86/Kbuild
indicates that CONFIG_HAS_CC_PLATFORM is not set. So if we want to have
stuff in arch/x86/coco/Makefile that build for !CONFIG_HAS_CC_PLATFORM,
like SNP host support, which does not rely on CONFIG_HAS_CC_PLATFORM
being set, that check needs to be moved down into arch/x86/coco/Makefile.

Ok, makes sense.
