OK, but fyi, there's a possible issue with !CONFIG_DEBUG

to
	net_dbg_ratelimited()

These messages are no longer emitted when DEBUG isn't defined
and not using dynamic_debug.  I'm not sure that's a real
problem, but it's a difference.

I could produce a net_printk_ratelimited that would keep
the original behavior if necessary.

	net_printk_ratelimited(KERN_DEBUG etc...)

Btw, what would the difference be to just plain printk_ratelimited()?
