Yes, sure.

That is good, but I think we also want to know the babble type - the
controller is reset or not.

Sometimes the custom board has hw or sw issue, for example USB
basically does not functional, maybe after babble there is no
re-enumeration, then we cannot tell if controller reset happened or
not from the log. I think a specific message telling that will
helpful.
