fault-inject: add /proc/<pid>/fail-nth

fail-nth interface is only created in /proc/self/task/<current-tid>/. This change also adds it in /proc/<pid>/. This makes shell based tool a bit simpler. $ bash -c "builtin echo 100 > /proc/self/fail-nth && exec ls /" Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita <[email protected]> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
