I guess you will be removing KEY_SYSRQ form all Chrome OS internal AT
keyboards and external USB keyboard with Chrome OS layouts as well? Via
udev keymap? I suppose this could work... Or have a per device setting
as we allocate a separate handle for each input device attached to the
SysRq handler.

This is way too noisy IMO.
