mm: make should_failslab always available for fault injection
should_failslab() is a convenient function to hook into for directed
error injection into kmalloc().  However, it is only available if a
config flag is set.
The following BCC script, for example, fails kmalloc() calls after a
btrfs umount:
    from bcc import BPF
    prog = r"""
    BPF_HASH(flag);
    #include <linux/mm.h>
    int kprobe__btrfs_close_devices(void *ctx) {
            u64 key = 1;
            flag.update(&key, &key);
            return 0;
    }
    int kprobe__should_failslab(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
            u64 key = 1;
            u64 *res;
            res = flag.lookup(&key);
            if (res != 0) {
                bpf_override_return(ctx, -ENOMEM);
            }
            return 0;
    }
    """
    b = BPF(text=prog)
    while 1:
        b.kprobe_poll()
This patch refactors the should_failslab implementation so that the
function is always available for error injection, independent of flags.
This change would be similar in nature to commit f5490d3ec921 ("block:
Add should_fail_bio() for bpf error injection").
