[PATCH] mm: ratelimit end_swap_bio_write() error

[Sergey Senozhatsky]

Use the ratelimited printk() version for swap-device write error
reporting. We can use ZRAM as a swap-device, and the tricky part
here is that zsmalloc() stores compressed objects in memory, thus
it has to allocates pages during swap-out. If the system is short
on memory, then we begin to flood printk() log buffer with the
same "Write-error on swap-device XXX" error messages and sometimes
simply lockup the system.
