From: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com> If we did not reserve extra CMA memory, the log buffer can be easily filled up by CMA failure warning when the devices calling dmam_alloc_coherent() to alloc DMA memory. Thus we can use pr_err_ratelimited() instead to reduce the duplicate CMA warning. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/ce2251ef49e1727a9a40531d1996660b05462bd2.161527982...
