Subject: [BACKPORT 4.14.y v2 4/6] power: supply: sysfs: ratelimit property read error message
From: David Lechner <david@...hnology.com>
[Upstream commit 87a2b65fc855e6be50f791c2ebbb492541896827]
This adds rate limiting to the message that is printed when reading a
power supply property via sysfs returns an error. This will prevent
userspace applications from unintentionally dDOSing the system by
continuously reading a property that returns an error.
