Subject[PATCH 2.6.23] SysRq: print hotkey info while pressing undef key
For SysRq, we just can get hot key list from Documentation/sysrq.txt
, but in the most of cases, the user can't access it by hand on
using SysRq to debug, so it is better for SysRq to provide an online
help for the users.

SysRq has already provided a similiar help before this patch, but it
is not so definite that the user doesn't know what happened and how
to do on pressing an undefined hot key.

In addition, that funtion has a big loop with another big loop
embedded which is very inefficient, it is intended to skip some hot
key help info for such a function as "Changing Loglevel", just print
a help info for this, that is very unnecessary. In fact, the key '0'
- '8' have different results the user should know.

This patch add this online help function, it'll print thw whole hot
key list and corresponding function descriptions, it can print the new
defined hot key without any changed needed.

The output is the below on pressing an undefined hot key:

SysRq : <6>this hot key isn't defined.
