So how does "Current Hyper-V Isolation VM requires AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT" work
exactly?

Please explain in detail and not in piecemeal sentences.

The kernel in the image needs to select AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT option
otherwise the kernel can't boot up due to missing SEV support and
sev_es_ghcb_hv_call() always return error.
