Fix nvidia driver on desktop
The nvidia_gtx1060 role rebuilds the initramfs via mkinitcpio but never
synced the result to the ESP that rEFInd actually boots from. The sync
only happens automatically via a pacman hook on `linux` package
upgrades, so a manual mkinitcpio rebuild (e.g. after changing this
role's modprobe.d config) left rEFInd booting a stale initramfs -
nouveau kept winning the race for the GPU until the next kernel
upgrade happened to trigger the hook.
