    I propose to add a install_and_reboot (if someone has a better name I'm
    open to suggestions). It installs the kernel, and then using nextboot
    will set to boot the freshly installed kernel, and then reboot the machine.

    I normally use it as:
    make install_and_reboot KERNEL=kernel.test

    Patch follows:
