Is it worth adding an error if CONFIG_SERIAL_PXA is defined? Or is there
any other way of preventing this patch launching Linus' "flag days" as
Russel King named it?

I understand that people are afraid of taking this patch. If it starts
causing troubles at runtime, it will be difficult to diagnose. There
will be no console for most people. So it is probably good idea to fail
at boot time.

I mean should the patch be re-revied and re-acked?
