Bug#378742: linux-image-2.6.16: cx88 driver drowns out dmesg

[Tim Phipps <tim@phipps-hutton.freeserve.co.uk>]

Package: linux-image-2.6.16
Version: hippo.3
Severity: normal

drivers/media/video/cx88/*.c has this in places:

#define dprintk(level,fmt, arg...)     if (debug >= level) ...

I think that >= should be a > so that when debug is set to 0 no messages
are printed by the kernel. At the moment I have nothing but lines like:

cx88[0]/2: queue is empty - first active
cx88[0]/2: cx8802_start_dma w: 0, h: 0, f: 2
cx88[0]/2: setting the interrupt mask
cx88[0]/2: [c858e540/29] cx8802_buf_queue - first active
cx88[0]/2: cx8802_restart_queue
cx88[0]/2: cx8802_restart_queue: queue is empty

when I run dmesg.
