When the debug information needs to be suppressed due to ratelimit,
it is unnecessary to determine the end of the corrupted memory.

This way, you will be ratelimiting on every function call, possibly 
skipping PAGE_POISON checks even if there was no prior corruption detected?

No, the previous memchr_inv() does the PAGE_POISON check, determine the start of the corrupted memory. !start means no corruption.

	start = memchr_inv(mem, PAGE_POISON, bytes);
	if (!start)
		return;

+	if (!__ratelimit(&ratelimit))
+		return;

	for (end = mem + bytes - 1; end > start; end--) {
		if (*end != PAGE_POISON)
			break;
	}
