Subject[PATCH] rate limit drm:radeon_cp_idle/reset errors
When switching from kwin composite wm (KDE 4.1) to compiz I often hit the
following error:

Sep 6 10:24:31 poppero1 kernel: [ 186.138203] [drm:radeon_cp_idle] *ERROR* radeon_cp_idle called without lock held, held 0 owner f726bc80 f68f6840
Sep 6 10:24:31 poppero1 kernel: [ 186.138568] [drm:radeon_cp_reset] *ERROR* radeon_cp_reset called without lock held, held 0 owner f726bc80 f68f6840

probably due to broken X drivers/apps; after hitting this the error my laptop
(hp nx7010) is totally unresponsitive to keyboard/mouse, also if it can be
shut down via the power button:

Sep 6 10:24:59 poppero1 powersave-wm_shutdown[4843]: DIAG: Process script for event button.power ID 10
Sep 6 10:24:59 poppero1 powersave-wm_shutdown[4843]: INFO: Event: BUTTON_POWER occured.
Sep 6 10:24:59 poppero1 powersave-wm_shutdown[4843]: INFO: Parameters: Event - button.power; Current Active Scheme: scheme_performance - ACPI event line: button/power PWRF 00000080
00000001
Sep 6 10:25:00 poppero1 shutdown[4852]: shutting down for system halt
...

Without the attached patch, which rate limits DRM_ERROR, the syslog is flooded
by thuosands of messages; here's the output with the patch applied.

Also if it doesn't solve a bug I think it may still be worth applying it.
Patch is against current git.
