By using the printk_force_console the loglevel workaround can be removed. The workaround existed to always send the sysrq header message to all consoles not matter what was the current loglevel, but it won't work for deferred messages, since the loglevel can be restore before the message is printed, suppressing the message that wasn't supposed to be suppressed by the workaround.
