Alan:
If Jason's patch is necessary () - should this be fixed up for standard
UARTs too?
Make sure that only serial console (not _any_ serial port) responds to
sysrq (or should something else be ensuring that this isn't set when
the port !console? (I didn't see anything in serial_core.c?)

That brings up the next question...
The above patch would sync the (seemlying duplicated) code between
drivers/usb/serial/generic.c and include/linux/serial_core.h
Greg?
drivers/usb/serial/generic.c

if (ch && time_before(jiffies, port->sysrq)) {
