    dm dust: add limited write failure mode · 72d7df4c
    Bryan Gurney authored
    Add a limited write failure mode which allows a write to a block to fail
    a specified amount of times, prior to remapping.  The "addbadblock"
    message is extended to allow specifying the limited number of times a
    write fails.
    
    Example: add bad block on block 60, with 5 write failures:
      dmsetup message 0 dust1 addbadblock 60 5
    
    The write failure counter will be printed for newly added bad blocks.
