PATCH 2/8 uml: readd CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ for UML
From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <[email protected]>
This config option was lost during the creation of lib/Kconfig.debug, due to a bad expressed dependency; I also moved the option back to its original place for UML (it is near CONFIG_MCONSOLE since it depends on that).
