This was borrowed from existing code in ghes_do_proc(), but yes, let me
make this change.

Ok.

I did run checkpatch.pl, but chose to ignore this warning. ghes.c uses
printk_ratelimit() [hence "in line with the rest of the ghes code" in
patch description] and I felt using it is better in this scenario given
there will be other messages being printed by the rest of the APEI code.
So, rate-limiting these messages globally seems better rather than doing
locally using pr_warn_ratelimited()

Yes, at least partially to ensure this works ;)

Thanks,
