I think you're missing the point. Lemme try again:

You *absolutely* must log those errors because they're important. It
doesn't matter if this is done in a panic notifier and you're changing
that whole shebang or through some other magic.

If you do, then this driver needs to *still* *log* those fatal errors -
regardless through a panic notifier or some novel contraption it wants
to use.

So if you want to change the panic notifiers, you *must* make sure those
errors still do get logged.

Better?
