Because every non-U-Boot expert who just downloads recent git and compiles it will get the warning and will wonder if something is wrong or not. So yes, the check doesn't hurt, but the warning might confuse the users, which are non-experts.
And the answer to that user is that something *is* wrong, and should be reported to the board maintainer so they can enable 64-bit printf.
We could get rid of it of course if we would enable this 64bit printf format on all platforms and removed this option completely. This would cost a bit of image size but would make things easier/simpler. Just my 0.02$...
Agreed. Or once we get kconfig we can have it be selected by any code that requires it.
