According to the UEFI Common Platform Error Record appendix, the
processor context information structure is a variable length structure,
but "is padded with zeros if the size is not a multiple of 16 bytes".

Currently this isn't honoured, causing all but the first structure to
be garbage when printed. Thus align the size to be a multiple of 16.
