User space can flood the log with lockdown denial messages:
[ 662.555584] Lockdown: bash: debugfs access is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7
[ 662.563237] Lockdown: bash: debugfs access is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7
[ 662.571134] Lockdown: bash: debugfs access is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7
[ 662.578668] Lockdown: bash: debugfs access is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7
[ 662.586021] Lockdown: bash: debugfs access is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7
[ 662.593398] Lockdown: bash: debugfs access is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7
Ratelimiting these shouldn't meaningfully degrade the quality of the
information logged.
