That's true; but we should enable BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET in defconfig 
too. It is not enabled by default.

Some defconfigs already have this:

$ git grep BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET
configs/calao_snowball_defconfig:BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET=y
configs/gnublin_defconfig:BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET=y
configs/nitrogen6x_defconfig:BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET=y
configs/wandboard_defconfig:BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET=y
linux/Config.in:config BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET
linux/linux.mk:ifeq ($(BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET),y)
