Subject: [PATCH 4.14 152/183] dm integrity: limit the rate of error messages

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@...hat.com>

commit 225557446856448039a9e495da37b72c20071ef2 upstream.

When using dm-integrity underneath md-raid, some tests with raid
auto-correction trigger large amounts of integrity failures - and all
these failures print an error message. These messages can bring the
system to a halt if the system is using serial console.

Fix this by limiting the rate of error messages - it improves the speed
of raid recovery and avoids the hang.

Fixes: 7eada909bfd7a ("dm: add integrity target")
