s390/lowcore: reserve 96 bytes for IRB in lowcore
The IRB might be 96 bytes if the extended-I/O-measurement facility is used. This feature is currently not used by Linux, but struct irb already has the emw defined. So let's make the irb in lowcore match the size of the internal data structure to be future proof. We also have to add a pad, to correctly align the paste. The bigger irb field also circumvents a bug in some QEMU versions that always write the emw field on test subchannel and therefore destroy the paste definitions of this CPU. Running under these QEMU version broke some timing functions in the VDSO and all users of these functions, e.g. some JREs.
