This fixes the boot image wrapper script to not fail the kernel
build if mkimage is not available.
As some distributions don't ship the mkimage program and I am not
interested in uboot images anyway, I don't want to fail the whole kernel
build process because of this unneeded dependency.

Simply drop an error message, but don't fail the build.
This is probably OK for now, but I'm working on getting mkimage merged
into the kernel so it will just get ripped back out later if I'm
successful.
Yeah, cool. I am fine with this. :)

I just don't want to install a tool into my operating system that
I do not need. Shipping it with the kernel is the best option.
