powerpc/xmon: Use `dcbf` inplace of `dcbi` instruction for 64bit Book3S

Data Cache Block Invalidate (dcbi) instruction implemented back in
PowerPC architecture version 2.03. But as per Power Processor Users Manual
it is obsolete and not supported by POWER8/POWER9 core. Attempt to use of
this illegal instruction results in a hypervisor emulation assistance
interrupt. So, ifdef it out the option `i` in xmon for 64bit Book3S.
