[PATCH v2 1/2] fault-inject: Restore support for task-independent fault injection

[Bart Van Assche]

Certain faults should be injected independent of the context
in which these occur. Commit e41d58185f14 made it impossible to
inject faults independent of their context. Restore support for
task-independent fault injection by adding the attribute 'global'.
