But you need to remember you need to enable dbglog first to get these events. I guess when coverage class is set the driver could, internally, override dbglog mask so that these events are guaranteed to be reported for the purpose of properly refreshing registers on channel programming. At that point I guess the update hook could be just placed in dbglog handler alone instead of all over wmi_rx variants.
