[PATCH 1/4] tools: kwboot: Align UART baudrate change code in BIN header to 128-bit boundary

ARM executable code inside the BIN header on some mvebu platforms
(e.g. A370, AXP) must always be aligned with the 128-bit boundary. This
requirement can be met by inserting dummy arguments into BIN header.
