Attempting to use SysRq via the 8250 serial port with spin lock
debugging on on a uniprocessor system results in the following splat:
SysRq :

Before ebade5e833eda30 ("serial: 8250: Clean up the locking for -rt")
this was handled by not even attempting to try the lock if port->sysrq,
since it is known to be taken by the interrupt handler; see
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6716#c1. Restore that
behavior.
