Subject: sparc64: build compressed image (zImage) by default

Besides creating the uncompressed vmlinux image for sparc64, also
create a compressed zImage. This is more consistent with other
architectures and required to make the 'deb-pkg' target work.

The patch was taken from the Debian kernel package. It was written by
Jurij. I added his Signed-off-by with his permission.

The patch was tested to work during my recent tests for the cmd64x issue.

This is fine, however:

If we are going to add this target to the 32/64 agnostic part of the
Makefile, we should remove the identical chunk earlier in the 32-bit
specific section.

I took the liberty of making that cleanup when applying this,
thanks!
