[PATCH] Fix bogus "callbacks suppressed" messages

From: Markus Trippelsdorf
Date: Fri Oct 05 2012 - 08:57:12 EST


On the current git tree one sees messages such as:
tty_init_dev: 24 callbacks suppressed
tty_init_dev: 3 callbacks suppressed

To fix this we need to look at condition before calling __ratelimit in
the WARN_RATELIMIT macro. While at it remove the superfluous
__WARN_RATELIMIT macros.

Original patch is from Joe Perches and Jiri Slaby.
