Subject: [PATCH v2] kernel: use the gnu89 standard explicitly

gcc5 changes the default standard to c11, which makes kernel
build unhappy.

Explicitly define the kernel standard to be gnu89 which should
keep everything working exactly like it was before gcc5.

Changes from v1:
  - I've accidently placed the statement in a CONFIG_READABLE_ASM.
It shouldn't be there.
