On a second thought, I have some comments on this symbol.

Given that the integration control registers may be useful for people to
find the device connections, I strongly feel that this is provided
via a CONFIG symbol rather than a  debug symbol within the code.

i.e, CONFIG_CTI_DEBUG_INTEGRATION_CTRL, to help the people better.
Codewise this doesn't make much difference, but it certainly makes
it more easier for people to use it.

We have used debug symbols elsewhere in the drivers for pure functional
debugging purposes. However I feel this is case is superior.


Cheers
Suzuki
