"irqpoll" & "noirqdistrib" are not mutually exclusive after all. So, the fix here
would be to pass "noirqdistrib" for kdump kernel along with "irqpoll".

Hi Louis/Canonical,

This fix, to append "noirqdistrib" to kdump kernel on powerpc, is needed on
all active release versions (14.04.* to 17.04).

Thanks
