"- Linus agrees rate limiting should be applied on the kernel's side, but that's not a solution somehow here, because reasons."

Wouldn't it be better for the entity writing the messages to prioritize them and select the most relevant so that it doesn't write so many that the system cannot start, rather than let an entity that doesn't know the meaning of the messages arbitrarily discard most of them?

Rate limiting seems a last resort not a proper solution.
