[PATCH] [POWERPC] Fix zImage-dtb.initrd build error

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

The pattern substitution rules were failing when used with zImage-dtb
targets.  if zImage-dtb.initrd was selected, the pattern substitution
would generate "zImage.initrd-dtb" instead of "zImage-dtb.initrd" which
caused the build to fail.

This patch renames zImage-dtb to dtbImage to avoid the problem entirely.
By not using the zImage prefix then is no potential for namespace
collisions.

Note to reviewers.  Please consider this change carefully.  I saw two
options for fixing this bug;
1) rework the pattern substitution to handle zImage-dtb correctly
2) avoid using the zImage prefix

I chose option 2 because it avoids increasing the complexity of the
pattern substitution code for generating initrd names.  However, doing
so will have an impact on distributors because it changes the name of
the generated image.  If this is a problem for anyone, or if you have
a better name suggestion than "dtbImage", then please speak up.

Cheers,
g.
