Machine Type = 8247-22L
---Steps to Reproduce---
Run the following command:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
Try to invoke xmon by inputting ctrl + o, x
System should drop into xmon, but the following message is printed instead:

root@hatg5:~# grep XMON /boot/config-3.16.0-8-generic
# CONFIG_XMON is not set
root@hatg5:~# uname -a
