[PATCH 02/27] Add a SysRq option to lift kernel lockdown

From: Kyle McMartin <kyle at redhat.com>
Make an option to provide a sysrq key that will lift the kernel lockdown,
thereby allowing the running kernel image to be accessed and modified.
On x86_64 this is triggered with SysRq+x, but this key may not be available
on all arches, so it is set by setting LOCKDOWN_LIFT_KEY in asm/setup.h.
