[PATCH] media: stk1160: Fixed high volume of stk1160_dbg messages

From: Ghanshyam Agrawal
Date: Sun Oct 29 2023 - 10:36:30 EST


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 directly.
