Volk seems buggy on arm with hf, consequently this Work around is mandatory to
avoid build failure... I'm agree it's not really good but it's the recommended
solution... 
I have compiled gnuradio for aarch64 without problems but I'm not
sure volk is working on this architecture and the work around is dedicated for
BR2_arm.

It's possible to use have_fpu_neon to disable neon but it's not possible to use
it to enable neon, all flags must be set manually...
