Title:
  riscv64: ensure reasonable partition alignment

Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Currently the RISC-V preinstalled server images come with partitions
  that are only 1 KiB aligned. Ext4 may use 4 KiB block size. The
  existing misalignment leads to decreased performance.

  Please, decrease the size of the loader2 partition by 34 512-byte
  blocks. This results in 1 MiB alignment of the EFI and root
  partitions.

  The remaining loader2 partition size of close to 4 MiB is still large
  enough for U-Boot or a future EDK II.
