Without getting into a philosophical discussion about the appropriate
log level for this message, the purpose of this patch is to move
ND_PRINTK(val > 1, ...) to net_dbg_ratelimited(), but for some reason
this hunk promotes an existing net_dbg_ratelimited() to
net_warn_ratelimited(). Why not keep it as net_dbg_ratelimited()?


Thanks!

But this ND_PRINTK is some special. The val is 1, but the level is 'dbg'.

To keep the consistency in printing behavior, I convert ND_PRINTK with
val <= 1 to net_{err,warn}_ratelimited. So I use net_warn_ratelimited() to
place ND_PRINTK here.
Oh, sorry! I am wrong!!!

You are right, net_dbg_ratelimited() should be used here.
