Subject: [RFC][PATCH] sysrq-j: emergency shell

Subject: [PATCH] sysrq-j: emergency shell
This patch adds support for "SysRq-j", which invokes an emergency
root shell in the current console.
Please don't bite my head off for abusing the file API; documentation
was rather sparse! (Corrections are welcome, though.)
It seems that keyboard input will go to the shell only half of the
time; the other half goes to whatever program was running there in
the first place. I tried to kill the other users of the TTY using
TIOCSCTTY, but it seems not to have worked. Any ideas?
