Following the pattern seen in toolchain-external-linaro-arm.mk - no
problem changing it - for reference this is what i saw in the other
.mk

ifeq ($(HOSTARCH),x86)
TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LINARO_ARM_SOURCE =
gcc-linaro-7.3.1-$(TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LINARO_ARM_VERSION)-i686_arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz
else
TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LINARO_ARM_SOURCE =
gcc-linaro-7.3.1-$(TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LINARO_ARM_VERSION)-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz
endif
