BASE_BAUD is only required for earlycon, which should depend on
CONFIG_SERIAL_EARLYCON.

Thx for the quick fix Peter. Now applied to my for-next and also quickly tested on
simulator.

FWIW, the issue came about because defconfig doesn't use the 8250 uart driver,
rather the legacy arc uart which still uses earlycon - but I still can't fathom
why i didn't see it earlier.

Thx,
