sysrq,rcu: suppress RCU stall warnings while sysrq runs
Some sysrq handlers can run for a long time, because they dump a lot of data onto a serial console. Having RCU stall warnings pop up in the middle of them only makes the problem worse. This patch temporarily disables RCU stall warnings while a sysrq request is handled.
