[OE-core] [PATCH] [fido] binutils: fix native builds when host has gcc5

[Martin Stolpe]

Yes, it would be better to fix these warnings. But on the other hand
this patch would just restore the previous behavior. So as a long term
solution I agree with you that these warnings should be fixed but why
not use a workaround until the problems are fixed? I wouldn't dare to
try to fix these warnings on my own as these are just my first steps
with Yocto and programming and I wouldn't be confident that my changes
would be correct.
