I suggested the same here:
https://listman.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2023-February/053402.html
Yet yangerkun resisted it:
https://listman.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2023-February/053410.html
And stuck with their more throttled approach (which looks wrong to me,
shouldn't it be using time_is_after_jiffies!?)

Anyway, I'm inclined to take your patch, I share your views:
