If you upgrade to Emacs 25, and want a workaround you can use now, an
advice along these lines should work:

(defun recentf-save-silently-advice (original &rest args)
  (let ((inhibit-message t)
        (message-log-max nil))
    (apply original args)))

(advice-add 'recentf-save-list :around #'recentf-save-silently-advice)

There's also the `save-silently' variable, though I don't recall when it
was introduced and don't have a repo handy at the moment to check.
