Bug report

Bug summary

If multiple subplots are created using the subplots function with sharex=True or sharey=True, only the outer axes should have tick labels. However, when having logarithmic axes, only this is only true for major tick labels.

The bug also appears when using AxesGrid instead of subplots.

Code for reproduction

fig, ax = plt.subplots(2, 2, sharex=True, sharey=True, squeeze=False)
for a in ax.flatten():
    a.plot([10, 20, 30], [10, 20, 30])
a.set_yscale("log")
a.set_xscale("log")

Actual outcome

Expected outcome

No x (including minor) tick labels for the upper axes, no y tick labels for the right axes.
