Affects PMD Version:
7.0.0

Rule:
GuardLogStatement

Description:
I do not believe an argument, which is a constant from another class, should result in a violation of this rule.

Code Sample demonstrating the issue:

        // This IS flagged as a violation
        LOG.info(
                "Some message here : foo={}",
                SomeOtherClass.MY_CONSTANT
        );

        // This is not flagged as a violation
        LOG.info(
                "Some message here : foo={}",
                MY_CONSTANT
        );

Expected outcome:

PMD reports "... Rule:GuardLogStatement Priority:2 Logger calls should be surrounded by log level guards..".
I think that's a false positive.
