Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mm: replace custom bad page map ratelimiting logic
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 18:21:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811172156.356053-2-pfalcato@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260811172156.356053-1-pfalcato@suse.de>

The current logic (allow up to $BURST prints per minute) can be entirely
replaced by the generic version in lib/ratelimit.c, used around the kernel.

Do so. The only functional difference should be that the new logs will
read something like:

KERN_WARNING "print_bad_page_map: %d callbacks suppressed\n", ...

But that should be fine enough.
