If I good understand you want prevent install any 32bit 
packages(386,586,686). Then the most efficient way is add to lock file 
only this line:
solvable_name: 32bit

this is mean lock ever which have as substring 32bit...so it is same as 
*32bit* in old format. Of course there is many other ways how to do this.
