Hi!
There exist machines which don't have SysRq key at all, e.g. chromebooks.
This patch allows configuring an alternative key to act as SysRq. Devices
which declare KEY_SYSRQ in their 'keybit' bitmap continue using KEY_SYSRQ,
but other devices use the alternative SysRq key instead, by default F10.
Which key is actually used can be modified with sysrq's module parameter.

So... SysRq was selected because you are not going to press
Alt-Printscreen-X by default.
This patch does not change the Alt-PrintScreen/SysRq-something sequence.
What it does instead is making the 'PrintScreen/SysRq' component of the
sequence configurable for input devices which don't declare KEY_SYSRQ in
their 'keybit' bitmap, so the sequence becomes:
Alt-<alternative sysrq key>-something
If the alternative sysrq key is used (i.e. the input device in question
does not declare KEY_SYSRQ), it is F10 by default and _that_ can be changed
with the module parameter.
To summarize:
- devices which do declare KEY_SYSRQ must use Alt-PrintScreen/SysRq-something
- devices which don't declare KEY_SYSRQ must use Alt-F10-something, but F10
can be changed with a module parameter to something else
Regards,
Andrzej
