Not that I know of. Cards that do support padding on the card may need changes
to the card driver modules to take advantage of PSS.

For the PIV all padding is done in by the calling application
or by the OpenSC software if OpenSSL is used. The PIV card
supports only the RSA RAW operation, so it has not been an issue
so far. NIST 800-78-2 says PSS it is an acceptable padding to use.
