Commit ab0e7f20768a ("Documentation: Merge x86-specific boot options doc
into kernel-parameters.txt") introduced a formatting regression where
architecture tags were placed on separate lines with broken indentation.
This caused the 'nopt' [X86] parameter to appear as if it belonged to
the [PPC/POWERNV] section.

Fix the formatting by placing the architecture tags on the same line as
their respective parameters ('pt', 'nopt', and 'nobypass') and restoring
proper indentation.
