block: rate-limit capacity change info log

loop devices under heavy stress-ng loop streessor can trigger many
capacity change events in a short time. Each event prints an info
message from set_capacity_and_notify(), flooding the console and
contributing to soft lockups on slow consoles.

Switch the printk in set_capacity_and_notify() to
pr_info_ratelimited() so frequent capacity changes do not spam
the log while still reporting occasional changes.
