Subject: [PATCH 3.16 152/192] net: Implement net_dbg_ratelimited() for
 CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG case

3.16.49-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tim Bingham <tbingham@...mai.com>

commit 2c94b53738549d81dc7464a32117d1f5112c64d3 upstream.

Prior to commit d92cff89a0c8 ("net_dbg_ratelimited: turn into no-op
when !DEBUG") the implementation of net_dbg_ratelimited() was buggy
for both the DEBUG and CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG cases.

The bug was that net_ratelimit() was being called and, despite
returning true, nothing was being printed to the console. This
resulted in messages like the following -

"net_ratelimit: %d callbacks suppressed"

with no other output nearby.

After commit d92cff89a0c8 ("net_dbg_ratelimited: turn into no-op when
!DEBUG") the bug is fixed for the DEBUG case. However, there's no
output at all for CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG case.

This patch restores debug output (if enabled) for the
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG case.

Add a definition of net_dbg_ratelimited() for the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG
case. The implementation takes care to check that dynamic debugging is
enabled before calling net_ratelimit().

Fixes: d92cff89a0c8 ("net_dbg_ratelimited: turn into no-op when !DEBUG")
