Actually, I'm not sure we need any of the current messages, or to have them at higher priority than pr_debug()? They are all triggered by admin action, or unconditionally upon boot. OTOH I think that an useful message that's currently missing would be when the static_key_enable() is triggered in auto mode. Bonus points for including the name of the process and the stat file that was read. However static_key_enable() returns void and not whether it actually flipped the switch, so it's not trivial.
