2020-04-07Documentation: sysrq: fix RST formattingAlyssa Ross
"On x86" and "On SPARC" are now definition list terms, like "On PowerPC", "On other", and "On all". The Credits list is now a bulleted list, like lots of Credits lists in other files. This prevents the list from becoming a single long, unpunctuated sentence in the generated documentation. I also did a couple of other tiny readability improvements to the "How do I use the magic SysRq key?" section while I was there.

2019-09-06Documentation: sysrq: don't recommend 'S' 'U' before 'B'Adam Borowski
This advice is obsolete and slightly harmful for filesystems from this millenium: any modern filesystem can handle unexpected crashes without requiring fsck -- and on the other hand, trying to write to the disk when the kernel is in a bad state risks introducing corruption. For ext2, any unsafe shutdown meant widespread breakage, but it's no longer a reasonable filesystem for any non-special use.
