It was enabled it on my ppc64 system after a git pull -- at least I did 
not enable it explicitly. Besides that others can enable it on any arch 
unless you now change the 'default x86_64' to a 'depends x86_64' iiuc 
otherwise the usage of a Fixes: , as I used in my patch, would be justified.

config TCG_TPM2_HMAC
	bool "Use HMAC and encrypted transactions on the TPM bus"
	default X86_64
	select CRYPTO_ECDH
	select CRYPTO_LIB_AESCFB
	select CRYPTO_LIB_SHA256
