sysrq: Allow immediate Magic SysRq output for PREEMPT_RT_FULL
Add a CONFIG option to allow the output from Magic SysRq to be output immediately, even if this causes large latencies. If PREEMPT_RT_FULL, printk() will not try to acquire the console lock when interrupts or preemption are disabled. If the console lock is not acquired the printk() output will be buffered, but will not be output immediately. Some drivers call into the Magic SysRq code with interrupts or preemption disabled, so the output of Magic SysRq will be buffered instead of printing immediately if this option is not selected. Even with this option selected, Magic SysRq output will be delayed if the attempt to acquire the console lock fails.
