"ec_imx6q" sounds wrong for the older i.MX SoCs. I don't know how
OF_EARLYCON_DECLARE works, but this:

OF_EARLYCON_DECLARE(ec_imx6q, "fsl,imx6q-uart", imx_console_early_setup);
OF_EARLYCON_DECLARE(ec_imx21, "fsl,imx21-uart", imx_console_early_setup);

looks like it matches a device tree compatible entry. For the older SoCs
you should likely use "ec_imx21".

Anyway, plain "earlycon" just works, why the hassle?
