I'm really sorry about this, it shouldn't have happened. The most easiest
solution to this problem would be to make the choice between
CRYPTO_SERPENT_SSE2_X86_64 and CRYPTO_SERPENT_AVX_X86_64 an exclusive-or choice
in crypto/Kconfig. I don't think there is an use-case, where somebody would
want to link both implementations into the same kernel image or even load both
implementations as module. This would avoid duplicating the glue-code again.

Another possibility would be to add a serpent-common-x86_64 module, but this
wouldn't be a trivial change and imo a little bit too much just to avoid
duplicating this code.
