I was thinking about this, but decided to begin with a simple version
that could definitely be useful in practice (for syzbot/syzkaller it is just
necessary to have a fault injection capability that will be triggered via
fail-nth). If per-hook fault injection can also be useful to someone, I
can try to add it as well.

Yes, that technique should help to implement the feature in a very concise
way. Thanks for the suggestion.
