Yes, it probably should be.

I really should have sent this as an RFC patch. I mostly did it to
document how patch 1/2 was tested. I'm not at all convinced this is a
great idea, though. I'm fine with just dropping this patch for now until
we have some time to consider it more. Maybe it would be better to hack
something into the OSDs for this?

I think if we did want to start adding fault injection knobs, then we'll
probably want to allow other tunables to be added simply. Maybe put them
in a "fault" subdir under the per-fsc debugfs dir?
