[PATCH] powerpc/xmon: Always enable xmon sysrq trigger

[Guilherme G. Piccoli]

Distros vary the way they enable SysRq by default - mostly they seem
to enable some mask and then majority of the SysRq functions are
disabled. For instance, xmon does not even have a mask, and unsless
SysRq are completely enabled ( == 1), xmon trigger keeps disabled.

Countless times while investigating hangs we needed xmon and it was
disabled - machine just got hung and while in serial console, we just
couldn't drop to xmon, forcing to a new attempt to reproduce the issue
with SysRq fully enabled.

This patch "fixes" this by having xmon enabled in all possible masks
of SysRq. In other words, xmon trigger will only be disabled if SysRq
is 0 (completely disabled). So, while debugging a hung, when one tries
to drop to xmon this patch prevents the frustrating message:
"This sysrq operation is disabled".
