Yes.

I think the tunables, if needed at all, should be set by modifying
the struct and the call might as well be:
	
bool __printk_ratelimit(struct printk_ratelimit_state *state)

Another quibble is not directed to your change because it's
preexisting but "tok" isn't a good name and may not even need
to be in the structure.  It does save a multiply though.

I think that anything that attempts a printk is slow path
so it doesn't matter much though.
