From: Alan Maguire <alan.magu...@oracle.com>
This is a very powerful and yet simple way to verify or modify
behaviour of kernel calls. It uses the same technique as the error
injection framework in kernel/fail_function.c to to override function
entry and return. In addition to error injection, this is very useful
to for instance verify that a particular API actually ends up being
called, and in the right way, as an effect of a test.
ktf_override.c: support for overriding function entry.
ktf_override.h: Function override support interface for KTF.
