In v5, Joel Fernandes seems to suggest you change it to the following form:
In arch/Kconfig:
+config ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC
+ bool
In arch/x86/Kconfig:
config X86
... ...
+ select ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC
In arch/arm64/Kconfig:
config ARM64
... ...
+ select ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC if PM_SLEEP_SMP
etc..
You can refer to ARCH_HAS_DEBUG_VIRTUAL.
