binutils: Avoid Race condition in as.info

The race condition in binutils/gas folder was introduced with the
following patch. The patch avoids recursive make into the doc folder.
It would speed up the build process slightly. However, the as.info
is installed twice which resulted in the race condition sometimes.

On debugging the code, it was found that the issue was related to
install-data-local. On further analysis, there is already a patch in
binutils that removes install-data-local.
On applying the patch as.info is installed once as expected and there’s
no possibility of any race condition.

+Subject: [PATCH] gas: drop old cygnus install hack
+
+This was needed when gas was using the automake cygnus option, but
+this was removed years ago by Simon in d0ac1c44885daf68f631befa37e
+("Bump to autoconf 2.69 and automake 1.15.1").  So delete it here.
+The info pages are already & still installed by default w/out it.
