It looks like people started ignoring the compiler warnings (or even errors) when building the arm64-specific kselftests. The first three patches are printf() arguments adjustment. The last one adds ".arch_extension sme", otherwise they fail to build (with my toolchain
Unfortunately there's a lot of toolchain variance with these warnings so a lot of people simply won't see them, you need a fairly fresh toolchain to see them, and IIRC GCC and clang warn about different sets of things too which doesn't help. If you look at the set of tests you're updating they're all fairly old so will predate the warnings having been added, I doubt anyone touched them recently enough to see the warnings.
But we should still fix them ;). I tried both gcc-12 and clang-14 that come with my Debian stable installation. If we see others, we'll fix them in time.
Thanks for the reviews.
