Subject: [PATCH] sysrq: Add enable_mask in sysrq_moom_op

Hi all

I found a little mistake.

It is written in the Documentation/sysrq.txt that oom-killer is enable
when we set "64" in /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq.
The following is it.

<Documentation/sysrq.txt>

    Here is the list of possible values in /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq:
         64 - enable signalling of processes (term, kill, oom-kill)
                                                          ^^^^^^^^

but enable_mask is not in sysrq_moom_op.
Could you please check the following patch ?
