          If you have enabled the earlycon on the Freescale IMX

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,
