So there's a function name sev_enabled() and an int sev_enabled too.
It looks to me like you want to call the function "sev_enable()" -
similar to sme_enable(), convert it to C code - i.e., I don't see what
would speak against it - and rename that sev_enc_bit to sev_enabled and
use it everywhere when testing SEV status.

Then, those read strange: like SME and SEV are mutually exclusive. Why?
I might have an idea but I'd like for you to confirm it :-)
Then, you're calling sev_enabled in startup_32() but we can enter
in arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_64.S::startup_64() too, when we're
loaded by a 64-bit bootloader, which would then theoretically bypass
sev_enabled().
