Subject: s390/pci: add extra padding to function measurement block

From: Sebastian Ott <sebott@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit 9d89d9e61d361f3adb75e1aebe4bb367faf16cfa upstream.

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.
