For what purpose?
Your request above was about not adding new tracepoints outside of a low
level CONFIG setting. I can understand that on the grounds of not
swamping high level tracing with low level details that are not
important to the general developer.
But this is not about adding extra tracepoints, this is about making the
existing tracepoints usable. With GuC submission, the GuC id is a vital
piece of information. Without that, you cannot correlate anything that
is happening between i915, GuC and the hardware. Which basically means
that for a GuC submission based platform, those tracepoints are useless
without this information. And GuC submission is POR for all platforms
from ADL-P/DG1 onwards. So by not allowing this update, you are
preventing any kind of meaningful debug of any scheduling/execution type
issues.
Again, if you are wanting to reduce spam in higher level debug then
sure, make the entire set of scheduling tracepoints LOW_LEVEL only. But
keeping them around in a censored manner is pointless. They are not ABI,
they are allowed to change as and when necessary. And now, it is
necessary to update them to match the new POR submission model for
current and all future platforms.

I don't follow this. OA information does not tell you any details of
what the GuC is doing. DRM/DMA generic tracepoints certainly won't tell
you any hardware/firmware or even i915 specific information.
And that is a much longer term goal than being able to debug current
platforms with the current driver.
