Subject: [PATCH] _very_ minor changes to Documentation/sysrq.txt

Hi, 

I was reading Documentation/sysrq.txt and a few things struck me as
slightly wrong, so I corrected them and created a patch. If you think
these changes are correct, then please consider applying - otherwise
just ignore it.

Patch attached as "2.4.13-pre3-sysrq_txt.patch" and is against
2.4.13-pre3.

Best regards,
Jesper Juhl
