[PATCH net] net: bgmac: rate limit RX error messages

[Rosen Penev <rosenp@gmail.com>]

When the RX ring is full the RX FIFO overflows. With RX overflow
continue enabled, the DMA engine then writes one frame with a bogus
length (always 0x45c2 on a BCM4716), which the driver drops with
"Found oversized packet at slot %d, DMA issue!".

Under sustained overload this happens on every NAPI poll. On an Asus
RT-N16 a 950 Mbit/s UDP stream to the router printed about 1450 such
lines in 20 seconds. The messages are printed from NAPI context, so
with a serial console the router spends most of its time printing.

The frames are already accounted in rx_length_errors and rx_errors.
Rate limit both RX error messages. With this change the same flood
printed 60 lines while rx_length_errors counted 14297 dropped frames.

Fixes: 6a6c708469c9 ("bgmac: add check for oversized packets")
