A rand config causes this link error
ld: drivers/tty/serial/earlycon.o: in function `parse_options':
drivers/tty/serial/earlycon.c:99: undefined reference to `uart_parse_earlycon'
The rand config has
CONFIG_SERIAL_CORE=m
CONFIG_SERIAL_EARLYCON=y
CONFIG_SERIAL_FSL_LPUART=m
CONFIG_SERIAL_FSL_LPUART_CONSOLE=y
SERIAL_FSL_LPUART should have been selected instead of depends on-ed.
After applying the configs are
CONFIG_SERIAL_CORE=y
CONFIG_SERIAL_EARLYCON=y
CONFIG_SERIAL_FSL_LPUART=y
CONFIG_SERIAL_FSL_LPUART_CONSOLE=y

This works, but I thought that the point of the recent patch was to make the driver modular.
You said:
"commit 5779a072c248db7a40cfd0f5ea958097fd1d9a30 removed the =y. so it could be built as a module."
That's not the same as what is happening here.
I think it would be better to revert the commit mentioned above.

As you pointed out SERIAL_FSL_LPUART is not tristate so the it likely
never worked to be modular.
Let me fiddle a bit with this and see, if it doesn't work, I'll submit
the revert.
