Okay, I agree.

How about this version?

config SPL_UART_CLOCK
	int "SPL fixed UART input clock"
	depends on SPL && !SPL_CLK
	help
	  Provide a fixed clock value as input to the UART controller. This
	  might be needed on platforms which can't enable CONFIG_SPL_CLK
	  because of SPL image size restirctions.

Thanks,
Stefan
