Mainly because it's a large patch-set (15 patches) [1, 2]. Since we don't really need a zImage now (we're using vmlinux), and both patches (either workaround or that patchset) would achieve the effect of removing the build error, I opted for the small workaround. I'm ok to put the patch-set in, instead.
