[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] gcc/config/riscv: define _REENTRANT for RISC-V when -pthread is passed

[Mark Corbin]

The detection of pthread support fails on RISC-V unless _REENTRANT
is defined. Added the CPP_SPEC definition from gcc 8.1.0 to correct
this.

Applied to master, thanks. I have also reverted all the
package-specific fixes we had to add _REENTRANT to fix this RISC-V
issue.

Thanks!
