We've had problems with ratelimit uses in the past
as well.

There's a logical separation issue with the #includes
of bug.h, printk.h, ratelimit.h kernel.h and the
spinlock includes.

My suggestion would be to see about again adding
#include <linux/ratelimit.h> somehow
back to kernel.h which commit 3fff4c42bd0a removed
in 2009 because of the spinlock issues.

Any suggestion on how best to fix it generically?
