[PATCH for-5.7/drivers v2 1/1] null_blk: describe the usage of fault injection param

From: Dongli Zhang
Date: Thu Mar 12 2020 - 18:01:07 EST


As null_blk is a very good start point to test block layer, this patch
adds description and comments to 'timeout', 'requeue' and 'init_hctx' to
explain how to use fault injection with null_blk.

The nvme has similar with nvme_core.fail_request in the form of comment.

Changed since v1:
- rebase at for-5.7/drivers
- describe 'init_hctx' as well
