[PATCH] Add printk_timed_ratelimit()
printk_ratelimit() has global state which makes it not useful for callers which wish to perform ratelimiting at a particular frequency. Add a printk_timed_ratelimit() which utilises caller-provided state storage to permit more flexibility. This function can in fact be used for things other than printk ratelimiting and is perhaps poorly named.
