doc: fix kernel-parameters.txt formatting 

Spell out "wrt".  I suspect plenty of people won't know
what that means.

Fix a '}' that should be a ']'.

Reformat long lines into shorter lines.

s3_bios and s3_mode.
s3_beep is for debugging; it makes the PC's speaker beep
as soon as the kernel's real-mode entry point is called.
s4_nohwsig prevents ACPI hardware signature from being
used during resume from hibernation.
old_ordering causes the ACPI 1.0 ordering of the _PTS
control method, wrt putting devices into low power
states, to be enforced (the ACPI 2.0 ordering of _PTS is
used by default).

s4_nonvs prevents the kernel from saving/restoring the
ACPI NVS memory during hibernation.

Poll forces a polling idle loop that can slightly improves the performance
of waking up a idle CPU, but will use a lot of power and make the system

to not use it because it doesn't save as much power as a normal idle
