Sorry, I forgot to address Ard's comment.

Note that platforms already shipped where OEM string has no padding will 
have change the firmware or add 0 padding to our quirk array IDs.
So how about:

static bool pci_mcfg_fixup_match(struct pci_cfg_fixup *f,
				 struct acpi_table_header *mcfg_header)
{
	int olen = strnlen(mcfg_header->oem_id, ACPI_OEM_ID_SIZE);
	int tlen = strnlen(mcfg_header->oem_table_id, ACPI_OEM_TABLE_ID_SIZE);

	if (olen != strlen(f->oem_id) || tlen != strlen(f->oem_table_id))
		return false;

	return (!strncmp(f->oem_id, mcfg_header->oem_id, olen) &&
		!strncmp(f->oem_table_id, mcfg_header->oem_table_id, tlen) &&
		f->oem_revision == mcfg_header->oem_revision);
}

This should work for all cases:
1. "PLAT"
2. "PLAT    " padding
3. No need to change existing firmware
