Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] Make I/O timeout failure injection again task-independent

Hello Andrew,

A recent change in the fault injection code introduced an undesired change
in the behavior of the I/O timeout failure injection code. This series
restores the original behavior. Please consider these patches for kernel
v4.14.

Thanks,

Bart.

Changes compared to v1:
- Fixed build with CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC, CONFIG_FAIL_IO_TIMEOUT and/or
  CONFIG_FAIL_FUTEX enabled.
