pleas dont do that, that means we need to special case flash-kernel for
that one platform, while flash-kernel generates uImage and uInitrd for
all others, just ship the vmlinuz binary as in all other linux packages,
flash-kernel is run on each update-initramfs run and will generate
uImage automatically together with uInitrd anyway.
