I know I'm late and this has gone through so many revisions, but I'm seeing
unexplained changes in buildhistory:

$ buildhistory-diff
packages/corei7-64-intel-common-poky-linux/linux-intel/kernel-image-bzimage:
FILELIST: removed "/boot/bzImage"

Doing builds of virtual/kernel with and without this patch and comparing
pkgdata directly confirms that the /boot/bzImage symlink doesn't exist with
this patch but does without it.
