I don't think we did. At least I don't know where we did that.

We are already using "decrypted" everywhere in arch/x86/. Changing that
would be a *lot* more churn.
And it is just a term, for chrissakes, to denote memory which is not
encrypted. And it would make our lifes easier if we had only *two* terms
instead of three or more. Especially if the concept we denote with this
is a binary one: encrypted memory and *not* encrypted memory.
