mempool: add error injection support

Browse source

Add a call to should_fail_ex that forces mempool to actually allocate
from the pool to stress the mempool implementation when enabled through
debugfs.  By default should_fail{,_ex} prints a very verbose stack trace
that clutters the kernel log, slows down execution and triggers the
kernel bug detection in xfstests.  Pass FAULT_NOWARN and print a
single-line message notating the caller instead so that full tests
can be run with fault injection.
