Hmm, I thought we would need to have this target available outside this
condition but as the linux_more_configs bot is passing (it does a build with
rtc_enable_protobuf=false) I guess it's not needed.

Or could it be that some of the targets including the header doesn't have GN
check enabled?

Mmmh... You are right! That's an awesome catch!

I checked the target webrtc/logging:rtc_event_log_impl and it is not triggering
the error even if we always include that header.
I am missing something here. Good that you spotted this. I will follow up.
