xfs: only run xfs_error_test if error injection is active

Browse Source 
Recent tests writing lots of small files showed the flusher thread
being CPU bound and taking a long time to do allocations on a debug
kernel. perf showed this as the prime reason:

            86045.00 14.1% xfs_btree_check_sblock      [kernel.kallsyms]

            27717.00  4.5% random32                    [kernel.kallsyms]

Walking btree blocks during allocation checking them requires each
block (a cache hit, so no I/O) call xfs_error_test(), which then
does a random32() call as the first operation.  IOWs, ~50% of the
CPU is being consumed just testing whether we need to inject an
error, even though error injection is not active.

Kill this overhead when error injection is not active by adding a
global counter of active error traps and only calling into
xfs_error_test when fault injection is active.
