Subject: wil6210: ratelimit Tx error message
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a3dcbae2476f2c32e8f123dd833d789f7f494711;p=linux-beck.git

wil6210: ratelimit Tx error message

Situations observed when IP stack schedules lots of
frames for Tx while no connection (connection lost,
for example). In this case, dmesg bloated with error
message "FW not connected", printed for every frame.

Ratelimit this error message to avoid dmesg pollution.
