firewire: net: ratelimit error messages
Unfortunately its easy to trigger such error messages by removing the cable while sending streams of data over the link. Such errors are normal, and therefore this patch stops firewire-net from flooding the kernel log with these errors, by combining series of same errors together. Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <maximlevitsky@gmail.com> (Stefan R:) Eventually we should remove this logging when firewire-net and related firewire-ohci facilities have been stabilized.
