[ Upstream commit 553f7ac78fbb41b2c93ab9b9d78e42274d27daa9 ]
The SuperH BIOS earlyprintk code is protected by CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK. However, when this protection was added, it was missed that SuperH no longer defines an EARLY_PRINTK config symbol since commit e76fe57447e88916 ("sh: Remove old early serial console code V2"), so BIOS earlyprintk can no longer be used.
Fix this by reviving the EARLY_PRINTK config symbol.
