Typically, the target devices have internal buffer to adjust output of
received MIDI messages for MIDI serial bus, while the capacity of the
buffer is limited. IEEE 1394 transactions can transfer more MIDI messages
than MIDI serial bus can. This can cause buffer over flow in device side.

This commit adds throttle to limit MIDI data rate by counting intervals
by jiffies between two MIDI messages. Usual MIDI messages consists of two
or three bytes. This requires 1.302 to 1.953 mili-seconds interval between
these messages. Using jiffies for this purpose is not perfect idea.
Further work is needed for better implementation.

I realize that the given argument should be multiplexed by 1000 to
represent mili-seconds.
