2a80a3783d Fix documentation of sysrq-q
I fell into the trap recently that it only dumps hrtimers instead of
all timers. Fix the documentation.

5045bcae0f sysrq: add show-backtrace-on-all-cpus function
SysRQ-P is not always useful on SMP systems, since it usually ends up showing
the backtrace of a CPU that is doing just fine, instead of the backtrace of
the CPU that is having problems.

This patch adds SysRQ show-all-cpus(L), which shows the backtrace of every
active CPU in the system.  It skips idle CPUs because some SMP systems are
just too large and we already know what the backtrace of the idle task looks
like.

09736bd36a Documentation: sysrq, description of 'h' slightly inaccurate
In Documentation/sysrq.txt, the description of 'h' says that any key not
listed *above* will generate help.  That's obviously not true since all the
keys listed below 'h' will do what they are described to do, not display help.
 So change the text so that it says that any key not listed in the table will
generate help, which is what really happens.

acf11faeb1 [PATCH] Documentation/sysrq.txt: added short description for 'Q' (timerlist)
I added the 'Q' to list. A short description in the `Ok, so what can I
use them for'-section, on when or why to use it would be nice!

d346cce308 [PATCH] sysrq: showBlockedTasks is sysrq-W
Change SysRq showBlockedTasks from sysrq-X to sysrq-W and show that in the
Help message.

It was previously done via X, but X is already used for Xmon on ppc & powerpc
platforms and this collision needs to be avoided.

All callers of register_sysrq_key() are now marked in the sysrq op/key table.
I didn't mark 'h' as Help because Help is just printed for any unknown key,
such as '?'.

Added some omitted sysrq key entries in the sysrq.txt file.

3eecd1dc57 [PATCH] Correct sa'K' description in sysrq.txt
sysrq SAK is described as being something you should mistake for SAK from
c2 compliant systems - whoops.  What's meant is that it should *not* be
mistaken as such.

5e03e2c48f update for Documentation/sysrq.txt
This patch for 2.4.x updates the dead email address for 'Mydraal'
and since he no longer wishes to field questions concerning
SysRq or this document removes the statement stating otherwise.

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
