[PATCH v2 1/5] fault-injection: notifier error injection

[Akinobu Mita]

The notifier error injection provides the ability to inject artifical
errors to specified notifier chain callbacks. It is useful to test
the error handling of notifier call chain failures.

This adds common basic functions to define which type of events can be
fail and to initialize the debugfs interface to control what error code
should be returned and which event should be failed.

[PATCH v2 4/5] memory: memory notifier error injection

[Akinobu Mita]

This provides the ability to inject artifical errors to memory hotplug
notifier chain callbacks.  It is controlled through debugfs interface
under /sys/kernel/debug/memory-notifier-error-inject/

Each of the files in the directory represents an event which can be
failed and contains the error code.  If the notifier call chain should
be failed with some events notified, write the error code to the files.

Example: Inject memory hotplug offline error (-12 == -ENOMEM)

	# cd /sys/kernel/debug/memory-notifier-error-inject
	# echo -12 > MEM_GOING_OFFLINE
	# echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state
	bash: echo: write error: Cannot allocate memory
