yeah. I just tested in QEMU. It seems that QEMU has
"rv64imafdcsu" as isa string in its DT. That's why I never saw this.

Yup. As DT binding only mention imafdc, mandatory extensions should
contain only that and just consider "su" extensions are considered as
implicit as we are running Linux.
Do you think QEMU DT should be updated to reflect that ?

Sorry. This was a typo. It should have been CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_C.

I think I added this check at the config file. Looking at the Kconfig,
RISCV_ISA_C is always enabled. So we can drop this.
