John Baldwin 894e70e80d Workaround a bug in the BIOS of Dell R900 machines. Specifically, each
entry in the SMAP is a 20 byte structure and they are queried from the
BIOS via sucessive BIOS calls.  Due to an apparent bug in the R900's
BIOS, for some SMAP requests the BIOS overflows the 20 byte buffer
trashing a few bytes of memory immediately after the SMAP structure.  As
a workaround, add 8 bytes of padding after the SMAP structure used in
the loader for SMAP queries.
