The block layer's timeout handling currently prevents drivers from
completing commands outside the timeout callback once blk-mq decides
they've expired. If a device breaks, this could potentially create many
thousands of timed out commands. There's nothing of value to be gleaned
from observing each of those messages, so this patch adds a rate limit
on them.
