That's a very good question ... I first thought it was checking whether 
the jiffies is between two times but obviously that was wrong intuition 
now when taking a closer look.

But then, looking more into it, this whole thing looks an opencoded 
*_ratelimited print. So perhaps overrun_time could be removed 
completely... ? I can see it kinda changes priority of which messages 
would get filtered out but I don't know if that's a problem or not.
