It's an empiric value to have a message about every 1.5 - 2 seconds (100ms * 15).
Ok, this value is not clear; I can change this fixed number in something like this:
...
#define USB_OC_COOL_DOWN_TIME 100 /* ms */
#define USB_OC_REPEATED_MSG_DELAY 1500 /* ms */
...
...
msleep(COOLING_DOWN_TIME); /* Cool down */
...
if ((status & USB_PORT_STAT_OVERCURRENT) ||
!(port_dev->over_current_count %
(USB_OC_REPEATED_MSG_DELAY / USB_OC_COOL_DOWN_TIME)))
dev_err(&port_dev->dev, "over-current condition\n");

Right, it's a redundant information.
