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.
