Hello Andrew, A recent change in the fault injection code introduced an undesired change in the behavior of the I/O timeout failure injection code. This series restores the original behavior. Please consider these patches for kernel v4.14. Thanks, Bart. Changes compared to v1: - Fixed build with CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC, CONFIG_FAIL_IO_TIMEOUT and/or CONFIG_FAIL_FUTEX enabled.
