Already done.
Look in mm/page_alloc:warn_alloc_failed()

void warn_alloc_failed(gfp_t gfp_mask, int order, const char *fmt, ...)
{
        unsigned int filter = SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES;

        if ((gfp_mask & __GFP_NOWARN) || !__ratelimit(&nopage_rs) ||
            debug_guardpage_minorder() > 0)
                return;
