Thanks for noticing this, but I do not think we need a new configuration
parameter. We did not have it for about 10 years and distributions know
how to disable it upon boot if they want to.

Do youthink you could cange the patch and add a default value (1) to
inlude/linux/sysrq.h and use it in sysctl and the handler code?

Thanks!
