Fix installation failure on chrp_ibm/qemu
Disable nvram installation again on chrp_ibm machines that are
emulated by qemu; that doesn't have nvram devices so the nvram
utility inevitably fails.
VSX bit is enabled by default for Power7 and Power8 CPU models,
so we need to disable them in order to avoid instruction exceptions.
Kernel will activate it when necessary.
