Nicolas Cavallari 99989d3b91 attr: Add a patch to fix an unconditional infinite recursion
The bump to 2.4.48 introduced a bug that, according to the author,
only happen in certain cases on glibc. But under uclibc-ng, it happens
every time.

The bug essentially cause any program calling any libattr.so function
to enter an infinite recursion, because of a symbol conflict between
uclibc-ng and libattr wrappers, that causes the libattr wrappers to
call themselves.

This infinite recursion does not consume the stack, so programs
basically behave like they enter an infinite loop.

It is easy to reproduce with qemu_arm_versatile_defconfig +
BR2_PACKAGE_ATTR: "getfattr ." never returns and takes 100% CPU.

Upstream fixed it, but the patch is not part of a release yet,
so take the patch.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
