[PATCH] scsi: mpt3sas: make sysfs error messages ratelimited

From: Colin King
Date: Fri Sep 07 2018 - 06:39:30 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

It is possible to heavily spam the kernel logs with messages by
excessive reading of the mpt3sas sysfs files. Make the error messages
ratelimited to reduce the spamming effect.
