    s390/pci: add extra padding to function measurement block
    
    Newer machines might use a different (larger) format for function
    measurement blocks. To ensure that we comply with the alignment
    requirement on these machines and prevent memory corruption (when
    firmware writes more data than we expect) add 16 padding bytes
    at the end of the fmb.
