The macro is to be used similarly as WARN_ON as:
if (WARN_ON_RATELIMIT(condition, state))
do_something();
One would expect only 'condition' to affect the 'if', but
WARN_ON_RATELIMIT does internally only:
WARN_ON((condition) && __ratelimit(state))
So the 'if' is affected by the ratelimiting state too. Fix this by
returning 'condition' in any case.
Note that nobody uses WARN_ON_RATELIMIT yet, so there is nothing to
worry about. But I was about to use it and was a bit surprised.
