Commit 1203c8e6fb0a ("fault-inject: simplify access check for fail-nth")
unintentionally broke a conditional statement in should_fail().  Any faults
are not injected in the task context by the change when the systematic
fault injection is not used.

This change restores to the previous correct behaviour.

With this fix, I can produce the IO ERROR by the fail_make_request.
