pseudo: Work around issues with glibc 2.24
There are issues with a change made to RTLD_NEXT behaviour in glibc 2.24 and that change was also backported to older glibc versions in some distros like Fedora 23. This adds a workaround whilst the pseudo maintainer fixes various issues properly. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

+We started seeing:

+No real function for mknodat: /home/paul/poky_sdk/tmp/sysroots/x86_64-
+linux/usr/bin/../lib/pseudo/lib64/libpseudo.so: undefined symbol: mknodat
+
+In glibc 2.24 they've merged:
+
+https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=7d45c163d00c88d5875a112343c4ea3e61349e6b
+related to bugzilla entry:
+https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19509
+
+which means that the behaviour of RTLD_NEXT is slightly different.
+As far as I can tell, mknod has not been present in glibc for a while.
+To quote stat.h:
+
+/* To allow the `struct stat' structure and the file type `mode_t'
+ bits to vary without changing shared library major version number,
+ the `stat' family of functions and `mknod' are in fact inline
+ wrappers around calls to `xstat', `fxstat', `lxstat', and `xmknod',
+ which all take a leading version-number argument designating the
+ data structure and bits used. <bits/stat.h> defines _STAT_VER with
+ the version number corresponding to `struct stat' as defined in
+ that file; and _MKNOD_VER with the version number corresponding to
+ the S_IF* macros defined therein. It is arranged that when not
+ inlined these function are always statically linked; that way a
+ dynamically-linked executable always encodes the version number
+ corresponding to the data structures it uses, so the `x' functions
+ in the shared library can adapt without needing to recompile all
+ callers. */
+
+so I suspect mknod has not existed for a while, if ever and what we
+were finding, who knows. Everying in the system links against _xmknod
+which we have a separate wrapper for.
+
+Anyhow, ignoring that problem which hasn't caused a issue in the past,
+the RTLD_NEXT change causes messages to be printed to stdout which causes
+carnage if for example the packaging code is expecting a list of packages:
+
+WARNING: core-image-minimal-1.0-r0 do_rootfs: No not found in the base feeds (qemux86_64 core2-64 x86_64 noarch any all).
+WARNING: core-image-minimal-1.0-r0 do_rootfs: real not found in the base feeds (qemux86_64 core2-64 x86_64 noarch any all).
+WARNING: core-image-minimal-1.0-r0 do_rootfs: function not found in the base feeds (qemux86_64 core2-64 x86_64 noarch any all).

+WARNING: core-image-minimal-1.0-r0 do_rootfs: mknod: not found in the base feeds (qemux86_64 core2-64 x86_64 noarch any all).
+[etc]
+
+This bug will affect:
+* any distro using glibc 2.24
+* any system using a uninative tarball for glibc 2.24
+* any system which took a backport for the fix which was merged into
+ the 2.23 branch for a while before it was reverted (Fedora 23 had this)
+
+The easiest thing to do is to ignore the problem and disable the diag
+message which masks the problem with no ill effects.
+
+As Peter notes, there are a few issues here:
+
+* the fact there is no mknod symbol
+* the fact an error here isn't fatal
+* the #ifdef/#else looks suspect
+* handle RTLD_NEXT chaining properly (need more libs?)
+
+which he'll work on upstream and hopefully have fixed in a new version.
