[PATCH 1/7] xfs: configurable error behavior via sysfs

[Carlos Maiolino]

We need to be able to change the way XFS behaviours in error
conditions depending on the type of underlying storage. This is
necessary for handling non-traditional block devices with extended
error cases, such as thin provisioned devices that can return ENOSPC
as an IO error.

Introduce the basic sysfs infrastructure needed to define and
configure error behaviours. This is done to be generic enough to
extend to configuring behaviour in other error conditions, such as
ENOMEM, which also has different desired behaviours according to
machine configuration.

Changelog:

V3:
	- Rebase patch on top of linux-xfs tree
	- Remove XFS_ERR_FAIL enums, once we are not using them
	  to control the fail speed, but base it on max_retries value
	- Get rid of xfs_error_cfg.fail_speed field. We will use only
	  .max_retries to control the failure speed for each error
