I can't help you fix this, but I've successfully built 6/rtems-arm tools 
+ BSP on a M1 Mac using multipass. basically:

1) create the ubuntu VM: "multipass launch -n u2004 -c 6 -d 16G -m 4G 20.04"

2) create a shared folder: "multipass mount /opt/vm/rtems 
u2004:/opt/vm/rtems"

3) upgrade expat to 2.4.8 and gmp to 6.2.1

4) before building, specify "ulimit -n 4096" on the linux VM otherwise 
GCC will fail to link with incomprehensible error.
