commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=4e89862706dd355dcba499a7e47b30737ce28a42
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

For grub-efi we can align the rootfs to start at exactly 16MB from the
beginning of the disk.  This can be done by reducing the vfat partition to
be 32 KB smaller than its 16MB size, just like the offset of the vfat
partition.
