Akinobu Mita c17bb49517 [PATCH] fault-injection capability for disk IO 
This patch provides fault-injection capability for disk IO.

Boot option:

fail_make_request=<probability>,<interval>,<space>,<times>

	<interval> -- specifies the interval of failures.

	<probability> -- specifies how often it should fail in percent.

	<space> -- specifies the size of free space where disk IO can be issued
		   safely in bytes.

	<times> -- specifies how many times failures may happen at most.

Debugfs:

/debug/fail_make_request/interval
/debug/fail_make_request/probability
/debug/fail_make_request/specifies
/debug/fail_make_request/times

Example:

	fail_make_request=10,100,0,-1
	echo 1 > /sys/blocks/hda/hda1/make-it-fail

generic_make_request() on /dev/hda1 fails once per 10 times.
