Nack, like Dave said.

For hitting alt-sysrq-t on console, you want to hit the whole
system, not just one ns.

For echo t > /sys/sysrq-trigger, you do though.  Fortunately, you
can tell the difference using check_mask in __hande_sysrq().  So
do that, and either always pass that on to op->handler and check it in
send_sig_all(), or just filter on key there and call a custom handler.
