Bug#1106270: u-boot-qemu: Unable to cross-compile on debian trixie.

Dear Maintainer,

Cross-compilation fails on debian trixie while issuing 'dpkg-buildpackage -aarm64 -b'.
It looks like PKG_CONFIG is taken from the wrong place while compiling qemu targets.
It should be mips64el but aarch64-linux-gnu is taken instead.

This is log from compilation.
