Subject: ocfs2: ratelimit the 'max lookup times reached' notice
Running stress-ng on ocfs2 completely fills the kernel log with 'max
lookup times reached, filesystem may have nested directories.'
Let's ratelimit this message as done with others in the code.
Test-case:
# mkfs.ocfs2 --mount local $DEV
# mount $DEV $MNT
# cd $MNT
# dmesg -C
# stress-ng --dirdeep 1 --dirdeep-ops 1000
# dmesg | grep -c 'max lookup times reached'
Before:
# dmesg -C
# stress-ng --dirdeep 1 --dirdeep-ops 1000
...
stress-ng: info: [11116] successful run completed in 3.03s
# dmesg | grep -c 'max lookup times reached'
967
After:
# dmesg -C
# stress-ng --dirdeep 1 --dirdeep-ops 1000
...
stress-ng: info: [739] successful run completed in 0.96s
# dmesg | grep -c 'max lookup times reached'
10
# dmesg
[ 259.086086] ocfs2_check_if_ancestor: 1990 callbacks suppressed
