I know this was discussed quite extensively yesterday, but here is my take on
it:

Given the recent complications from multiplatform, we really saw a strong
reason to _not_ do the final boot wrapping in the kernel build system.
Produce the zImage and the DTB files, and have a surrounding script that
bundles the two in a format that your particular device needs.

Most distros have scripts to handle the "make install" step of a kernel build.
That's where this belongs, not in the actual build step.
