If change my setup to build for a 32bit target, it build u-boot without 
error.
When I build the same git outside yocto on 64bit with multilib installed 
it also builds without error. In that case the make command would be:
make -j8 edison_defconfig

My conclusion: I have some bb variable set to the wrong value or I need 
to get multilib installed into /..../sysroots/x86_64-linux/lib.

So how to do that?
