After having to go figure out what some of these means, I figured I
would save others the trouble.

Some of these are "best guess" based on a quick scan of the code, so it
certainly needs a sanity review before going upstream.

"iommu" is listed in Documentation/x86_64/boot-options.txt
along with more x86_64-specific boot options.
A few other arches do something similar...

Ah! Well, seeing as how we already have a provision for arch-specific options in kernel-parameters.txt, and some less-obscure arch-specific options can be found there, I think an argument can be made for my patch :)

Nonethless, if the maintainer disagrees, they can drop this patch I suppose.
