For what it's worth, this patch massively helps with avoiding a warning
with clang 16.x and older, for presumably a similar reason, since this
happens with allmodconfig, which turns on a bunch of sanitizers.

https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1875

Before this change:

  drivers/media/platform/verisilicon/rockchip_vpu981_hw_av1_dec.c:2097:5: error: stack frame size (2096) exceeds limit (2048) in 'rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_run' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
  int rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_run(struct hantro_ctx *ctx)
      ^
  238/2096 (11.35%) spills, 1858/2096 (88.65%) variables

After this change:

  drivers/media/platform/verisilicon/rockchip_vpu981_hw_av1_dec.c:2097:5: error: stack frame size (496) exceeds limit (200) in 'rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_run' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
  int rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_run(struct hantro_ctx *ctx)
      ^
  265/496 (53.43%) spills, 231/496 (46.57%) variables

If this could be picked up either before the 6.5 media pull goes out or
at some point during the -rc cycle, that would be great!
