If you have enabled the earlycon on the Freescale IMX
CPU you can make it the earlycon by answering Y to this option.

What caused this build error to start happening? Any pointers to the
specific commit?
It's start from 699cc4dfd140 ("tty: serial: imx: add imx earlycon
driver"), the driver
uses the uart_console_write(), but SERIAL_CORE_CONSOLE is not selected,
so uart_console_write
is not defined, then we get the error.
thanks,
