binutils: fix xtensa ld segfault on linking linux modules

This fixes the following build error reproducible with any linux kernel
module built with a recent buildroot toolchain:

  LD [M]  fs/jbd2/jbd2.ko
  /bin/sh: line 1: 12069 Segmentation fault
  buildroot/host/usr/bin/xtensa-buildroot-linux-uclibc-ld -r --no-relax
  -T linux/scripts/module-common.lds --build-id
  -o fs/jbd2/jbd2.ko fs/jbd2/jbd2.o fs/jbd2/jbd2.mod.o

+is_inconsistent_linkonce_section makes an assumption that section name
+that starts with ".gnu.linkonce.prop." has one more dot in its suffix.
+However gas generates such section name by insertion of "prop." right
+after ".gnu.linkonce." part of the name of the original section. So, for
+section named ".gnu.linkonce.this_module" corresponding property section
+name does not satisfy the assumption. Such section names are common in
+linux modules. This bug was exposed by the patch "a35d5e8 Fix alignment
+for the first section frag on xtensa", that makes gas produce property
+section for each section that has ".align" directive in it.
+
+Use suffix that immediately follows ".gnu.linkonce.prop." when there are
+no more dots following it.
