In many cases usbmon does the job, and it's intended to be "always-on",
as to allow building it even on embedded kernels. Sure, it will not print
nice values of quirks and such, but that's a trade-off. I sort of hoped
that the switcheable explicit messages would generally die off. Look
at ub, it only has messages which indicate error conditions.

I'm not against your patch as such, it's a net improvement.
