I think not that much of C details knowledge is need - the conversion
itself is a very mechanical task, but the trick is to find out which
printfs are used in autoconfig context and which are not. Since you can
not just boot all the hardware suppported and look at the kernel boot
messages, you have to trace through the call graph more or less
manually.
