binutils/binutils: fix extra config array variable name

The changeset 2467 #200836977ce6 missed renaming one occurrence of
CT_BINUTILS_EXTRA_CONFIG to CT_BINUTILS_EXTRA_CONFIG_ARRAY, which is fixed by
this patch.

fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.

The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
