Maybe it should be dev_warn(). The fact that it is not dev_warn_once() means
that we now know this occurs regularly.

Would you mind testing the following patch please?

Thanks

Subject: [PATCH] media: rc: meson: rc rc0: two consecutive events of type
 space

The meson generates one edge per interrupt. The duration is encoded in 12
bits of 10 microseconds, so it can only encoding a maximum of 40
milliseconds. As a result, it can produce multiple space events.

It seems weird to report this over and over again.

Solve the problem on meson. Thx
Feel free to add this submitting the patch

Actually this patch is broken. ir_raw_event_store_with_timeout() generates
IR timeouts, but ir_raw_event_store_with_filter() does not.

So this will need some rethinking. I think we need a 
ir_raw_event_store_with_timeout_with_filter() but that is getting silly now.

Maybe filter should be a boolean property of an rc device and happen
transparently. I'll write something like that when I get some time.

would you still object to use dev_warn_once() in the meantime ?
Console flooding is quite annoying.
