The error is not produced in good cases, for every resolution change which is violating this error should print once.
I suggest having it print every time some application tries to violate the policy set at boot time.
If we use ratelimit many resolutions error change will be suppressed. Please let me know your thoughts.

At first I tried braking the line to respect 80 character boundary, but checkpatch.pl reported it as a problem.
And these new lines are suggested by checkpatch.pl itself.
Looks the recent rule realted to 80 charachters are changed. Ref : https://www.theregister.com/2020/06/01/linux_5_7/#:~:text=Linux%20kernel%20overlord%20Linus%20Torvalds,the%20topic%20of%20line%20lengths.

I have tested checkpatch.pl before sending, for the current patch there is no problem from checkpatch.pl
