Documentation: document the nosmt and smt s390 kernel parameters

Browse Source 
Commit 6c2ff84e979a ("s390: add SMT support") added the nosmt and smt
early kernel parameters for restricting the use of symmetric
multithreading (SMT). They are quite useful for debugging and testing,
so document them.
