I tried to find any examples on how that KBUILD_IMAGE thingy is used
but to no avail. It looks like for ARC "bootpImage" makes not much
sense and if you really want to get something useful in .deb/.rpm
most probably something like below may work much better:
------------------------>8--------------------------
KBUILD_IMAGE	:= $(boot)/uImage
------------------------>8--------------------------

And I don't know context of KBUILD_IMAGE usage but in
case of ARC our default target is "vmlinux" so I'm not sure then if
KBUILD_IMAGE may point to non-default target.

For example in "arch/avr32/Makefile" I see more complicated construction:
------------------------>8--------------------------
             KBUILD_IMAGE := $(boot)/uImage
vmlinux.elf: KBUILD_IMAGE := $(boot)/vmlinux.elf
vmlinux.cso: KBUILD_IMAGE := $(boot)/vmlinux.cso
uImage.srec: KBUILD_IMAGE := $(boot)/uImage.srec
uImage:      KBUILD_IMAGE := $(boot)/uImage
------------------------>8--------------------------
and may imagine that we need something similar for ARC obviously with
default being "$(boot)/vmlinux".
