Attached is the patch from last week which provides the sysrq system
with the following:

a toggleable 'sticky' flag in /proc, which makes the sysrq key work on bad
keyboards, and through bad KVMs.

the ability to set which key in /proc, which makes the sysrq key work on
system _without_ a 'sysrq' key; like bad KVMs.

I've gotten no tracktion on this in a week, so I'm resubmitting it.
