[PATCH][RESEND] clocksource: downgrade messages about skipping watchdog check under load

[Maciej S. Szmigiero]

From: "Maciej S. Szmigiero" <maciej.szmigiero@xxxxxxxxxx>

Since commit c86ff8c55b8a ("clocksource: Avoid accidental unstable marking of clocksources")
the watchdog check is skipped if two consecutive watchdog reads are too far
apart.

This might happen, for example, when the system is under heavy load, so it
isn't a totally unexpected condition.

Since some systems are prone to producing significant number of these
messages when the system is constantly under heavy load downgrade their log
level to "debug" to avoid filling the kernel log in such case.

These messages can then still be enabled via dyndbg mechanism in case
someone really needs to see them.
