Some time ago, when I submitted changes to make SYSRQ a little more
secure, it was suggested that perhaps this should be submitted to the
mainline kernel. I think it was Patrick McHardy that suggested it. I
could've done with this a couple of days ago and the recent SYSRQ patch
jogged my memory.
What do I need to do to make this happen (or at least begin to happen)?

1. Since it's in Xt-a, you would notify me that you would like me to
submit it upstream.
2. Bribe the NF maintainer to accept the posted inclusion.
3. ???
4. Profit (SCNR!)

I've recently discovered that a local hostelry sells Gales HSB and I'm
willing to stand the NF maintainer a pint of it as a bribe :-)

If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know.
