From: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>

This patch makes the default install script (arch/powerpc/boot/install.sh)
copy the bootable image files into the install directory.  Before this
patch only the vmlinux image file was copied.

This patch makes the default 'make install' command useful for embedded
development when $(INSTALL_PATH) is set in the environment.

As a side effect, this patch changes the calling convention of the
install.sh script.  Instead of a single 5th parameter, the script is now
passed a list of all the target images stored in the $(image-y) Makefile
variable.  This should be backwards compatible with existing install scripts
since it just adds additional arguments and does not change existing ones.

What do you do for cases where there isn't a single file?  E.g. a 
canyonlands board will need both the uImage and caynonlands.dtb files
to be "installed".  U-Boot needs to be provided with both of them.

That is exactly what this patch does.  It copies all of the image
files in $(image-y).

But there is nothing preventing the .dtb files being added to image-y.
 If you add them, they will be built and copied.  :-)

Well, it would if the .dtb files were includes in image-y, but they
aren't.  Anyway, that doesn't seem to be a bug or short-coming of the
patch itself, so this looks good to me.
