Yes.

As Sarah is the maintainer of the file, I'll leave that decision up to her :)
And keeping a config option for debugging isn't a good idea. The rest of the kernel has switched to using dynamic debugging, so that distros and others can easily get information without requiring a kernel rebuild (which we can't expect users to always be able to do.) So I would not recommend this change.
