Oh, I didn't realize it needs either of these.

I think anyone who wants to see those messages ought to have at least
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG, especially since they are under verbose_request
(which also should go away IMO). In fact, I wonder whether this code
predates dynamic debugging, it's been there for almost 10 years.


I'll leave it to you whether you want to add another patch.
