Sorry, I don't follow -- the code currently is

(defun eldoc-display-message-no-interference-p ()
  "Return nil if displaying a message would cause interference."
  (not (or executing-kbd-macro
           (bound-and-true-p edebug-active)
           ...

So the check for edebug is still there.

If I remove that check, I don't see any problems -- stepping through the
code doesn't trigger eldoc, so there's no covering up of messages.  (But
moving the cursor after stepping triggers eldoc, but that seems fine.)
