From: Dmitry Osipenko <digetx@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 7db688e99c0f770ae73e0f1f3fb67f9b64266445 ] There is a quite huge "uncorrectable error in header" flood in KMSG on a clean system boot since there is no pstore buffer saved in RAM. Let's silence the redundant noisy messages by rate-limiting the printk message. Now there are maximum 10 messages printed repeatedly instead of 35+.
