[Buildroot] [PATCH] bfin: disable newer binutils for internal toolchain

[Waldemar Brodkorb]

You get following linking error, when trying to build a
toolchain for bfin with newer binutils:
bfin-buildroot-linux-uclibc/bin/ld: fde encoding in _divdi3_s.o(.eh_frame) prevents .eh_frame_hdr table being created.

Could you report the bug to upstream binutils? I'd like to be able to
get rid of binutils 2.22 at some point.

Thanks a lot!
