Apply binutils.patch to the binutils-2.26.1 and then copy
binutils/bfd/xtensa-modules.c
and binutils/include/xtensa-config.h into xtensa-dynconfig/config/.
And since the gdb part is missing you'd need to create two empty c source files:
xtensa-dynconfig/config//gdb/gdb/{xtensa-config.c,xtensa-xtregs.c}
