I'm not sure I follow, these are both valid
        debug=y CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=pl011
        debug=y /* No early printk */
In the latter case you have debug on a system which can boot on multiple
boards.

Or are you concerned about not being able to build a production
(non-debug) hypervisor with early-printk? i.e.
        debug=n CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=pl011
?
