Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 2/2] printk: console: Remove sysrq exception

Hi Calum,

This patch is almost at completion and already changes the way kernel.printk 
works. I'm sure we'd all be happy to look at proposed changes in another 
patchset, but I'm not likely to add more changes to this one. In general, 
there's plenty of historical baggage in printk space, but changing it requires 
careful thought about API/ABI compatibility, new designs, and compatibility.

Thanks,

Chris
