Apologies; I had been intending to commit the removal myself after the
openrd testers got back to me, but testing took much longer than
expected, and I neglected to follow-up with the removals needed for d-i.

I'll make sure with future removals to CC debian-boot if it's one of the
targets currently supported in d-i, even if I plan to make the commits
myself.
