Currently we are using the .pad section to ensure the zImage file size aligned to 8 bytes.
But that is not needed when CONFIG_EFI_STUB enabled, as it would followed by a 512 bytes aligned .data section.

Changes in v2: Remove .pad section when CONFIG_EFI_STUB enabled as Russell King <linux@armlinux.org.uk> suggested.
