We would like to use the ability to create kernel rpms already in the kernel's Makefile, but need the vmlinux file included in the rpm for later debugging. This patch adds a compressed vmlinux to the kernel rpm when doing a make rpm-pkg or binrpm-pkg and upon install places the vmlinux file in /boot.
