Nack!

The U-Boot is close to the Linux kernel regarding the use of the
compiler and does a huge set of handling internally to properly pass
options depending on the SoC, arch and others.

This build error has been fixed in new U-Boot releases and if the
board required an old version (and cannot be updated) the fix should
be done on the recipe and not on the common file as it can change,
behind the scenes, what is in use for several recipes without notice.
