I hate to be a pedant, but how about if we don't make it depend on EMBEDDED at all? I.E. just: 'default y'
If the system has SYS_HAS_EARLY_PRINTK, the overhead of enabling EARLY_PRINTK is low, although it may slow down booting. But it is really not at all related to EMBEDDED.

help This option enables special console drivers which allow the kernel to print messages very early in the bootup process.
