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.
