Yufen,

As Jaegeuk mentioned, it needs to keep original f2fs fault injection
framework code in order to cover test during mount(). IIUC.

IMO, one way to add this framework is making those two framework
compatible, but before that, could you please explain the details
of benefit for adapting the common framework?
