[232/272] Input: sysrq - ensure sysrq_enabled and __sysrq_enabled are consistent

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Feb 15 2011 - 19:31:03 EST


2.6.37-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

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.
