It's currently not possible to build the default zImage target if PS3 is the only selected platform. This adds a target that builds a stripped vmlinux, which the PS3 bootloader (kboot) will be able to load.

This replaces Arnd's patch '[POWERPC 7/9] ps3: add a default zImage target' sent out earlier today.

Add a powerpc make target that can be loaded by the ps3 bootloader (kboot) and set this as the default image to build for that platform.

Until the compressed zImage wrapper is made, this arranges for a stripped vmlinux image to be built.

Paul,

I noticed this didn't go into the latest set in powerpc.git.

I think having the default image for ps3 set as zImage.pseries will cause confusion for some users since that image is not loadable by the ps3 bootloader.

I rebased this to the latest powerpc.git. Please apply.
