Sure, but isn't that the purpose of the PMD_RX_LOG/PMD_TX_LOG (i.e., to make it possible to log events in the rx/tx path when that becomes necessary)?  Presumably, this would be a debug option only when necessary during development and not used to debug an issue live while the application needs to be useable/responsive.
