The fault attribute can be configured using either the debugfs or the
module parameter "fail_request". It is thus possible to use
FAIL_MMC_REQUEST without FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS (even if it is less
convenient).

The other systems that use the fault injection infrastructure (futex,
alloc_pages, slab...) can be used without the dependency on
FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS. They also use nested #ifdef to handle this
configuration. I chose the #ifdef approach for the sake of coherence.
