From 35f9a7a380728a94d417e5824a866f969423ac83 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2013 22:10:46 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] sfc: Rate-limit log message for PTP packets without a matching timestamp event In case of a flood of PTP packets, the timestamp peripheral and MC firmware on the SFN[56]322F boards may not be able to provide timestamp events for all packets. Don't complain too much about this.
