I would be perfectly fine with doing that assuming the default behavior
is not changed with this patch (i.e., debugging would be enabled by
default). I would consider changing the default setting a separate issue
and for that, it might be more worthwhile approach to identify the debug
messages that are undesired by default than to disable everything.
