No, it's not 1 April.

I was researching panic_blink() for someone who needed a little help,
when I noticed the comment above the function definition, not being the
kind to step down from a challenge (unless it's just really hard), I
decided to write morse code output code.

The option panicblink= has been hijacked to be a simple bitfield: 
bit 1 : blink LEDs
bit 2 : sound the PC speaker.

the blinking option depends only on pc_keyb.c. the pcspeaker option
depends on kb_mksound() actually doing something. At the moment, both of
these mean i386. The call to panic_blink() in panic() is still guarded
by an i386 #ifdef, anyway, for the moment. The default is to blink only,
because I figured the beeps would be too annoying. Opinions?

It recognizes letters, and digits, and treats everything else as a
space. The timings are tunable by #defines. It repeats the message
indefinitely. And it should only bloat the kernel by a few hundred
bytes, although if someone wants to wrap this in its own config option,
well, that's good too.

Anyway, here's the patch. It's against linux-2.4.19-rc1-ac1+preempt, but
I suspect it applies against all recent -ac. If 2.5 has this, it will
hopefully apply with some fuzz against that, too. I don't have a tree.
(modem. ecch.)
