fault-inject: avoid call to random32() if fault injection is disabled
After enabling CONFIG_FAILSLAB I noticed random32 in profiles even if slub fault injection wasn't enabled at runtime. should_fail forces a comparison against random32() even if probability is 0: if (attr->probability <= random32() % 100) return false; Add a check up front for probability == 0 and avoid all of the more complicated checks.
