log: mute messages generated by log drivers
When a message is written by a log driver (e.g. via the network stack) this may result in the generation of further messages. We cannot allow these additional messages to be emitted as this might result in an infinite recursion. Up to now only the syslog driver was safeguarded. We should safeguard all log drivers instead.
