[PATCH 004 of 10] md: md: raid5 rate limit error printk

From: NeilBrown <hidden>

From: Bernd Schubert <redacted>

last night we had scsi problems and a hardware raid
unit was offlined during heavy i/o. While this happened we got for
about 3 minutes a huge number messages like these

Apr 12 03:36:07 pfs1n14 kernel: [197510.696595] raid5:md7: read error not correctable (sector 2993096568 on sdj2).

I guess the high error rate is responsible for not scheduling other
events - during this time the system was not pingable and in the end
also other devices run into scsi command timeouts causing problems on
these unrelated devices as well.
