Rewrite existing cpu-notifier-error-inject module to use debugfs based new
framework.

This change removes cpu_up_prepare_error and cpu_down_prepare_error module
parameters which were used to specify error code to be injected.  We could
keep these module parameters for backward compatibility by module_param_cb
but it seems overkill for this module.

This provides the ability to inject artifical errors to CPU notifier chain
callbacks.  It is controlled through debugfs interface under
/sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu

If the notifier call chain should be failed with some events notified,
write the error code to "actions/&lt;notifier event&gt;/error".

Example1: inject CPU offline error (-1 == -EPERM)

	# cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu
	# echo -1 &gt; actions/CPU_DOWN_PREPARE/error
	# echo 0 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	bash: echo: write error: Operation not permitted

Example2: inject CPU online error (-2 == -ENOENT)

	# cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu
	# echo -2 &gt; actions/CPU_UP_PREPARE/error
	# echo 1 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	bash: echo: write error: No such file or directory

I used this module to test the series of modification to the cpu notifiers
code.

Example1: inject CPU offline error (-1 == -EPERM)

	# modprobe cpu-notifier-error-inject cpu_down_prepare_error=-1
	# echo 0 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	bash: echo: write error: Operation not permitted

Example2: inject CPU online error (-2 == -ENOENT)

	# modprobe cpu-notifier-error-inject cpu_up_prepare_error=-2
	# echo 1 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	bash: echo: write error: No such file or directory
