util/crossgcc/patches: facilitate successful build of ipxe

New changes in the latest binutils 2.32 lead to assembler errors causes
ipxe build failure. IPXE uses the divide test which requires /dev/null as
input as well as the output file name.

This patch facilitates the /dev/null as an exception to the current
changes in binutils package while building crossgcc for coreboot leads to
successful build of ipxe and further tests to pass based on /dev/null and
applies automatically during the crossgcc rebuild.

Also, this can be reverted once binutils/ipxe provides an updated release
in this respect.
