Subject: [PATCH stable 1/4] kernel.h: add printk_ratelimited and
 pr_<level>_rl

From: Joe Perches <joe@...ches.com>

commit 8a64f336bc1d4aa203b138d29d5a9c414a9fbb47 upstream.

Add a printk_ratelimited statement expression macro that uses a per-call
ratelimit_state so that multiple subsystems output messages are not
suppressed by a global __ratelimit state.
