Title:
  Kernel panic - not syncing: Too  many boot init vars at `nomdmonddf'

Bug description:
  Every time grub-pc is configured, "nomdmonddf nomdmonisw" is added to
  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub. Eventually this
  overflows a limit in the kernel which causes panics and failed boots.

  Let's only add this the once.
