Back in March, there was some discussion about ratelimiting the BSDCOMPAT errors, and James Morris provided a patch to achieve this. http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0303.3/1078.html To which David Miller stated the patch had been applied. http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0303.3/1081.html Unfortunately, it seems to have fallen through the cracks. Below is the patch again, updated for 2.6.0-test3 - please apply.
