Only one of the other %p<foo> extensions is conditional
and that
conditional is probably not too useful.
I think the code size is relatively small and not
particularly valuable for the additional complexity.
For instance, all of the code that emits MAC and
IP[46] addresses %pM and %pI variants is 2.5K.
(x86 allnoconfig)
There are lots more code size savings than that
lying about.
And auditing all the code that might emit a MAC
address when CONFIG_NET is not set is probably
not worth the effort for the size reduction.
