The argument checks for the network root handlers are not very useful, as
there is no error message; things just fail to work. Since this should only
ever be a problem when developing dracut, it is not too unfriendly to expect
developers to add rdnetdebug to the command line when working on this area.

Remove them for now, as the arguments will be going through some flux and
we can add them back later with more helpful messages if it is desired.

I admit that argument checks without error messages aren't that good an idea. But as long as we have scripts that need arguments these should be checked. I've wasted too many hours of debugging because people weren't paranoid enough about their arguments.

Removeing checks for arguments that are no longer necessary is ok, but please change the others to output an error message.
