[patch 037/108] sym53c8xx: ratelimit parity errors

[Greg KH]

2.6.30-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: John Stoffel <john@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 75be63bcf73ebdd1fdc1d49f6bf2d1326a1ba7de upstream.

This makes a huge difference when you have a serial console on bootup to limit
these messages to a sane number.
