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.

Great, can you add a Fixes: line to the patch and resend it with this
information added to the changelog text?

Always include this type of information if at all possible.
