While I understand the idea, I'm not entirely sure it's the most
logical way. What about instead changing the current:

ifeq ($(BR2_GDB_VERSION_10),y)
GDB_GDBSERVER_TOPLEVEL = y
endif

by:

ifeq ($(GDB_VERSION_10),10.1)
GDB_GDBSERVER_TOPLEVEL = y
endif

This way, it really expresses what we want: gdb version 10.x require a
different build logic.

Alternatively, we could do a hidden Config.in boolean:

config BR2_PACKAGE_GDB_TOPLEVEL
	bool
	default y if BR2_GDB_VERSION_10
	default y if !BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GDB && BR2_riscv

Best regards,

Thomas
