linux-ti33x-psp 3.2: for beaglebone set default Asm architecture to armv7-a

Beaglebone kernel needs to be built in Thumb2 mode to achieve fast boot
times. Unfortunately, that build is broken under newer binutils-2.22 with
the below Assembler error. The fix is to pass the specific -march=armv7-a
flag to the Assembler to make it work.

+Subject: [PATCH] arch/arm/boot/compressed: set default Asm architecture to armv7-a
+
+This enables building compressed kernel with newer binutils-2.22 when kernel is
+built in Thumb2 mode. Otherwise it fails with the following Assembler error:
