[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] grub-efi-native: workaround for fedora 29

[kai.kang at windriver.com]

From: Kai Kang <kai.kang at windriver.com>

grub-efi-native fails to run do_configure on Fedora 29 host:

| checking for options to compile assembly...
| Assembler messages:
| Fatal error: The input and output files must be distinct

because the host 'as' in binutils-3.31 breaks if using two filesystems.
See:

https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=2a50366

Work-around this issue by forcing the configure time assembler check to
use a temp file in the src dir.

+When /dev and $srcdir are not in a same file system, it may trigger a flaw of
+binutils 2.31 and cause grub-efi-native configure error:
+
+| checking for options to compile assembly...
+| Assembler messages:
+| Fatal error: The input and output files must be distinct
+
+Replace /dev/null with a temporary file during assemble check to avoid such
+failure.
+
+This is a workaround for binutils 2.31. When it is fixed on Fedora 29, this
+patch could be removed.
