Hello Hiroshi.

It's your patch and your idea.
I think you should submit it.
You were just asking for alternatives or a bit
of guidance.

Maybe a better name for dev_ratelimited_level is
dev_level_ratelimited and the macro should be

#define dev_level_ratelimited(dev_level, dev, fmt, ...)			\
do {									\
	static DEFINE_RATELIMIT_STATE(_rs,				\
				      DEFAULT_RATELIMIT_INTERVAL,	\
				      DEFAULT_RATELIMIT_BURST);		\
	if (__ratelimit(&_rs))						\
		dev_level(dev, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__);			\
} while (0)

with uses like

#define dev_notice_ratelimited(dev, fmt, ...)				\
	dev_level_ratelimited(dev_notice, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)


Your choice though I think the last option above
may be better because it more closely follows the
style a dev_printk_ratelimited would use.

cheers, Joe
