x86/paravirt: Ensure proper alignment

The entries in the .parainstructions sections are 8 byte aligned and the
corresponding C struct paravirt_patch_site makes the array offset 16
bytes.

Though the pushed entries are only using 12 bytes, __parainstructions_end
is therefore 4 bytes short.

That works by chance because it's only used in a loop:

     for (p = start; p < end; p++)

But this falls flat when calculating the number of elements:

    n = end - start

That's obviously off by one.

Ensure that the gap is filled and the last entry is occupying 16 bytes.

  [ bp: Add the proper struct and section names. ]
