The error message is clear - the U-Boot build uses an option which your
compiler does not understand.  You have two ways of fixing this

1) upgrade your toolchain to a compiler understanding -MQ
2) "downgrade" the U-Boot buildprocess for your toolchain

I advise 1) as 2) invests time into something you will need to abandon
sometime anyhow.

Cheers
