[PATCH v3] HID: rate-limit hid_warn to prevent log flooding

[Li Chen <me@linux.beauty>]

From: Li Chen <chenl311@chinatelecom.cn>

Syzkaller can create many uhid devices that trigger
repeated warnings like:

  "hid-generic xxxx: unknown main item tag 0x0"

These messages can flood the system log, especially if a crash occurs
(e.g., with a slow UART console, leading to soft lockups). To mitigate
this, convert `hid_warn()` to use `dev_warn_ratelimited()`.

This helps reduce log noise and improves system stability under fuzzing
or faulty device scenarios.

Changelog:

v2: Introduce hid_warn_ratelimited to rate-limit the specified log.
v3: also ratelimit "reserved main item tag ..."
