(v1->v2: change the help message of sysrq key, instead of allow user trigger upper-case character)
Currently help message of /proc/sysrq-trigger highlight its
upper-case characters, like below:
SysRq : HELP : loglevel(0-9) reBoot Crash terminate-all-tasks(E)
memory-full-oom-kill(F) kill-all-tasks(I) ...
this would confuse user trigger sysrq by upper-case character, which is
inconsistent with the real lower-case character registed key.
This inconsistent help message will also lead more confused when
26 upper-case letters put into use in future.
This series fix it.
Thanks the comments from Andrew and Randy.
