This patch provides fail-injection capability for disk IO.
Boot option:
fail_make_request=<probability>,<interval>,<times>,<space>
<probability>
specifies how often it should fail in percent.
<interval>
specifies the interval of failures.
<times>
specifies how many times failures may happen at most.
<space>
specifies the size of free space where disk IO can be issued
safely in bytes.
Example:
fail_make_request=100,10,-1,0
generic_make_request() fails once per 10 times.
