I try to keep my dmesg clean, so I can see the signal in the noise. However, I am annoyed by the spamming that app armor does in the logs:

[74339.538450] audit: type=1400 audit(1620404490.953:75): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="snap.chromium.chromium" name="/run/udev/data/c509:6" pid=33938 comm="ThreadPoolForeg" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0

How do I stop these messages from being created?

To really stop those messages, I think you'll have to change the AppArmor profiles. An easier solution that worked for me is to install auditd (sudo apt install auditd). If the audit demon is running, the messages are still produced, but they'll end up in the audit log (in var/log/audit/audit.log) and don't clutter your dmesg output any more.
