I would go for sysrq_alternative_key to preserve the namespace naming.

Capital U, lowercase u above. Do we want to print the info in the
default case, actually?

If you line-break here, I suggest adding a \t or two to the beginning of
the following lines:

> + "Example\n"
> + "Using F9 as SysRq:\n"
> + "sysrq.alternative_sysrq_key=0x43\n");

The last \n is superfluous, there would be an empty line.

Looking at emulate_raw in drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c, you seem you need
to update that one as well. Otherwise raw keyboard mode won't send sysrq
sequence, when you press it, right?
