I could be wrong here but I think this is a matter of xen itself did not
always support bzImage kernel boot until sometime later in version 3.X
and make-kpkg hasn't been updated to allow for it. Something along
those lines I believe. I think the patch is better described as a hack
though and its ok to upload where you want so as it is described as
such. If anything an alternative method or actual fix may come of
it.
