That would change the output of this code, this patch preserver
the ouput, just changes the logic to be easier to follow.

The issue with original code is that the if else-if else condition
is not consistent.

The first if checks S390 and address type together, however the second
else-if checks only for PPC64, the capability checks are inside that block.

So if arch is S390 but the address type is different from
VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_ADDRESS_TYPE_NONE it continues to the last else block and
sets the model to piix3-uhci it it's available.

The second else-if for PPC64 doesn't fallback to piix3-uhci it the
architecture is PPC64 but none of the capabilities from that block
are set.

This patch changes the logic and also makes the if else-if more clearer
so the first check is only for architecture and after that in each block
we test for capabilities.
