dhcp and any seem to do the same thing. Get rid of any?
This is "legacy" from kernel nfsroot. We should keep this for
compatibility.
* ip=<interface>:[dhcp|on|any]
o get ip from dhcp server on a specific interface
* ip=[none|off]
o no TCP/IP network
What is the point of this? When is this ever useful?
ip=[none|off] doesn't make any sense at all. Can be removed IMHO.

ip none and off are mentioned here as well, although it seems ambiguous
as to the purpose.
