Even though it is deprecated in GCC 6 [1] it has not yet been
removed from gcc upstream. We do have active machines in OE

so until upstream gcc takes next step to remove them
lets support armv4 again, we are still carrying the relevant gcc patch
to support v4 BX fix.

Huh, I was going to send an email about removing support for qemuarmv5.
Do we follow gcc or drop older arches before that?
Our current list of qemu machines on master is:
meta/conf/machine/qemuarm64.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemuarm.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemuarmv5.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemumips64.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemumips.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemuppc64.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemuppc.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemuriscv32.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemuriscv64.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemux86-64.conf
meta/conf/machine/qemux86.conf
qemuarmv5 was added in:
commit 6fc70eb4f3494bee2be10ee24fe3ea1c8b5ff988

qemuarm: Swap for an arm7ve (A15) configuration
Add new QEMU BSP for a Arm Cortex-A15 system and use this as qemuarm,
moving the old armv5te Versatile PB based machine to qemuarmv5.
The new machine uses the QEMU virt machine type, which should be
faster to emulate and updates the qemuarm support to a modern
architecture.
