The mlx5 PMD provides a specific workaround for the VMware ESXi
hypervisor, enabling on-demand routing configuration to virtual
machines. This workaround activates when the device type is
a Virtual Function and either an ESXi hypervisor is detected
or the hypervisor type is unknown.

For non-x86 architectures the function rte_hypervisor_get()
consistently returns an unknown type, which triggers the workaround
automatically without any actual needs. If there are VLAN support
requirements, this can lead to failures in inserting default control
flows.

Do not trigger the workaround for unknown hypervisor type
in non-x86 environments.
