Bhupesh Sharma 5221d4b90c kdumpctl: Remove 'netroot' and 'iscsi initiator' entries from kdump cmdline 
In a iSCSI multipath environment (which uses iSCSI software initiator
and target environment) when the vmcore file is saved on the target,
kdump always fails to establish a iSCSI session and also fails to
collect dump due to duplicate entries for 'netroot' and
'iscsi initiator' in the kdump bootargs:

   # echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger

This patch fixes the same by removing the 'netroot',
'rd.iscsi.initiator' and 'iscsi_initiator' entries from the kdump boot
cmdline.

One reason why this is safe is our kdump target setup does not
depend on 1st kernel inherited cmdline params now since the work
we dropped root dependency.
