I tried to define as 'char key', but meet some trouble in remote protocol,
+struct remote_domain_send_sysrq_args {
+ remote_nonnull_domain dom;
+ char key;
+};
will report 'char key' as unsupported type.

Mainly because xen/libxl API both accept letter as parameter directly, so define
enum will need to map enum to letter before calling xen/libxl API.
