SubjectRe: [PATCH v4 2/3] mmc: core: add random fault injection
From
2011/7/27 Per Forlin <per.forlin@linaro.org>:

Looks good but I have one question.

I think make_it_fail is not needed anymore because if fail_attr is
defined per-host then you can enable it by setting probability=0
or times=0 per-host.
