Something like this should work:

config AT91_DEBUG_DEFAULT_BASE
	hex
	default 0xfffff200 if AT91_DBGU_AT91RM9200
	default 0xffffee00 if AT91_DBGU_AT91SAM9263
	default 0xfc069000 if AT91_DBGU_AT91SAMA5D4

choice
	prompt "Choose Lowlevel debug UART"

config AT91_DBGU_AT91RM9200
	bool "AT91RM9200, AT91SAM926[01], AT91SAM9x5, AT91SAM9N12"
config AT91_DBGU_AT91SAM9263
	bool "AT91SAM9263, AT91SAM9G45, ARCH_SAMA5D3"
config AT91_DBGU_AT91SAMA5D4
	bool "AT91SAMA5D4"
endchoice

This lets you choose the right one if multiple SoCs are enabled during
build. Of course it only works if you choose the correct one for the SoC
you are running on later.
