[PATCH v3 5/6] Documentation/admin-guide: Document nomodeset kernel parameter

[Javier Martinez Canillas]

The nomodeset kernel command line parameter is not documented. Its name
is quite vague and is not intuitive what's the behaviour when it is set.

Document in kernel-parameters.txt what actually happens when nomodeset
is used. That way, users could know if they want to enable this option.
