2.6.37-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ From: Andy Whitcroft <[email protected]> commit 8c6a98b22b750c9eb52653ba643faa17db8d3881 upstream. Currently sysrq_enabled and __sysrq_enabled are initialised separately and inconsistently, leading to sysrq being actually enabled by reported as not enabled in sysfs. The first change to the sysfs configurable synchronises these two: static int __read_mostly sysrq_enabled = 1; static int __sysrq_enabled; Add a common define to carry the default for these preventing them becoming out of sync again. Default this to 1 to mirror previous behaviour.
