From: "zhangwei(Jovi)" <jovi.zhangwei@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: ARM/etm/sysrq: fix inconstistent help message of sysrq key
Currently help message of /proc/sysrq-trigger highlights its
upper-case characters, like below:
SysRq : HELP : loglevel(0-9) reBoot Crash terminate-all-tasks(E)
memory-full-oom-kill(F) kill-all-tasks(I) ...
this would confuse user trigger sysrq by upper-case character, which is
inconsistent with the real lower-case character registed key.
This inconsistent help message will also lead more confused when
26 upper-case letters put into use in future.
This patch fix arm etm sysrq key: "etm-buffer-dump(v)"
(This patch also add "-" to separate each sysrq key help word,
instead of spaces)
