Subject[PATCH V4] media: stk1160: Fixed high volume of stk1160_dbg messages
Date
The function stk1160_dbg gets called too many times, which causes
the output to get flooded with messages. Since stk1160_dbg uses
printk, it is now replaced with printk_ratelimited.

V4:
Updated printk_ratelimited to KERN_DEBUG level instead of
KERN_WARNING level since the original function in use,
stk1160_dbg, uses KERN_DEBUG level.

V3:
Fixed the issue with my patch needing previous versions being applied
first.

Used printk_ratelimited instead of dev_warn_ratelimited because
of compiler error "incompatible pointer type".

V2:
To add KERN_WARNING in printk_ratelimited, and later as per warning by
the checkpatch script, replaced printk_ratelimited with
dev_warn_ratelimited.

V1:
The function stk1160_dbg gets called too many times, which causes
the output to get flooded with messages. Since stk1160_dbg uses
printk, it is now replaced with dev_warn_ratelimited.
