Still missing this important detail. The DFU on v2014.04 is broken in a way
that it requires also the whole binary to be aligned by 4k. The above pads
the tail to full 4k (last block).

Btw, now I realised that I haven't checked if this is inherited in your binman
case. Note, I haven't put that into the Makefile hack as I expected users to
do this once, but perhaps if somebody wants to start over (by flashing the last
official image), the file size needs to be aligned.
