ext2: avoid printk floods in the face of directory corruption
A very large directory with many read failures (either due to storage problems, or due to invalid size & blocks from corruption) will generate a printk storm as the filesystem continues to try to read all the blocks. This flood of messages can tie up the box until it is complete - which may be a very long time, especially for very large corrupted values. This is fixed by only reporting the corruption once each time we try to read the directory.
