Yes, part of the kernel, and tbh, I find it to be quite helpful in
debugging field issues from customers, where enabling ftrace isn't
practical. If you still want to remove, there are other locations in
this gadget driver that log function entry. Perhaps it'd be better to
do a separate change that cleans up logging a bit or do you prefer to
just refactor this one now?

Will do.
