Hello David,

On non-x86 platforms (tested on powerpc) this fails to build with:

security/lock_down.c: In function ?lockdown_lift_sysrq?:
security/lock_down.c:100:40: error: ?LOCKDOWN_LIFT_KEY? undeclared (first use in this function)
   lockdown_lift_sysrq_op.help_msg[5] = LOCKDOWN_LIFT_KEY;
                                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
security/lock_down.c:100:40: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
