Don't play games with device pools like this. Create a single error
device from the SCRATCH_DEV, just like the dm-flakey code does. That
way this code can be used by any filesystem.

And like the dmflakey code, build the dm tables at init time so you
don't need all the blockdev variables to built them later on.

This has already been checked in the _require function, right?

And so this will never fail.

Why are you doing this here, and, FWIW, it can't fail, either.

These are not necessary if the tables are already built.

There is no need to test the dm-error device like this. If it's not
failing IO, then the caller is going to fail because the filesystem
failed to fail like expected...

8 space tabs, please, and this function can go in common/dmerror,
too.
