+Subject: [PATCH] Differentiate between a bss TLS initialized symbol.
+
+Back-port from https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/gcc/commit/366cc86e4f8ff6f00f0b731dc6f78d22c7ac9e0a
+
+This patch fixes "undefined reference to .tdata" observed in many autobuilder
+results for ARC.
+
+Once the next release of ARC GNU tools happens this patch must be removed from
+Buildroot.
