According to net/ipv4/ipconfig.c, the ip= and nfsaddrs= options are
handled by the same function in the same way, so there's no need to
specify both.  On the other hand, that function is sufficiently well
written that it will cope with Larry's extra config line; the nfsaddrs=
entry will just overwrite the ip= entry.

Cheers,
