Spamming my logs with these messages so often that my dmesg buffer
soon contains nothing but and I have to use grep -v to read my syslog
is not user-friendly, and I am hardly a novice.

At most, a reworded message should be emitted on the first
occurance of the error and not again until a reboot. If you want to
know more, there are debugging tools for that sort of thing.
