[OE-core] linux-yocto and gcc 5.x

[Richard Purdie]

Hi Bruce,

One of the things we're looking at in 1.9 is gcc 5.x support by default.
One of the areas this has significant impact is on the kernels,
linux-yocto in particular. I'm starting to see a potential problem here
since the kernels don't appear to work well with gcc 5.x:

(this is a test build I ran just to see how bad things were).

Are we going to be in a position to get 5.x support backported into 3.14
(and maybe 3.10)? Or was we going to have to wait for later versions?

Cheers,

Richard
