Currently drop_caches is used to invalidate file's page cache so that buffered read can hit disk, but the problem is that it may also invalidate metadata's page cache, so the test case may not get read errors (and repair) if reading metadata has consumed the injected faults. This changes it to do 'fadvise -d' to firstly access all metadata it needs to locate the file and then only drops the test file's page cache. Also this changes it to read the file only if pid%2 == 1.
