drop old workaround kernelopts

- nopat - added when PAT in Linux+Xen was buggy, no longer the case for a
long time.
- iommu=soft swiotlb=8192 - necessary to limit required memory on PV with
PCI devices; since we use HVM now (with proper IOMMU translation), this
is no longer needed. Furthermore, it will free some memory in sys-* vms.
