As one of the few people actually developing for Apex chips (but this
may be more soon), I ran into a situation where I cared about this.
But I usually cobble together custom debugging for development
situations, and generally don't get debug logs for
released-in-the-wild drivers, so I'm fine not including these or any
other debug logs.

It sounds like debug logs face a pretty high bar for acceptance.  I'm
happy to send a patch removing all of 'em from gasket/apex if that's
preferred.

Sure, the callbacks most frequently occur during disable/enable events
and were linked in my brain, but will send a new patch to just remove
the useless callback logs.
