On x86 CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM is now a synonym of CONFIG_XEN.
In Xen specific x86 code it can be just dropped, in non-Xen specific
x86 code it can be replaced with CONFIG_XEN.
In architecture independent code it is used only where CONFIG_XEN is
defined, so it can be replaced with CONFIG_X86 there.

I'm very happy to see a reduction in the number of Kconfig symbols for
Xen (there are definitely too many), but this looks wonky.
Or are you saying that there really is no way to build a Xen PV guest
excluding the HVM-only bits?
Seems so, yes.
This has been like this for at least several years now.
What you can do is to configure the kernel to exclude the Xen platform PCI
device (CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM_GUEST=n).
I think I caused this inadvertently in 34aff14580d1 ("xen: Remove Xen
PVH/PVHVM dependency on PCI")
CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM should just be bool, and then XEN_PVH & XEN_PVHVM_GUEST
can select it. Then it can be disabled for a PV only build.
I'll send it out, so you can evaluate it.
Regards,
Jason
