There are also those that chosen to depend on
FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS, such as FAULT_INJECTION_STACKTRACE_FILTER.

I would like to keep the amount of #ifdefs around in the code to a
minimal. In this case it doesn't even make sense and as there are no
consistent behaviour to consider, could you please adopt the Kconfig
solution instead!?
