gcc: Include patch scheduled for GCC 4.8.3 to fix epilogue on ARM

GCC 4.8.0, 4.8.1 and 4.8.2 can generate broken epilogues for the
ABI used by the kernel. Apply the patch that is included for GCC
4.8.3 from http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58854.

The issue was found on Yocto/Dora and the patch should be backported
to this branch. A kernel built with Dora's GCC 4.8.1 misbehaved on:

 while true;
 do
    (for i in `seq 1 100`;
        do
            echo "Log message... $RANDOM";
        done) | logger;
 done

busybox's syslogd would from time to read a huge negative value and
then exit, strace would get stuck waiting on a syscall. After this
patch it appears to work better.
