[23/27] kernel.h: add printk_ratelimited and pr_<level>_rl

From: Greg KH
Date: Mon Jan 23 2012 - 18:46:20 EST


2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8a64f336bc1d4aa203b138d29d5a9c414a9fbb47 upstream.

Add a printk_ratelimited statement expression macro that uses a per-call
ratelimit_state so that multiple subsystems output messages are not
suppressed by a global __ratelimit state.
