This is the patch I have cooked up.
I will push that to kbuild-next soon if there is no futher comments.

Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: Use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel script
Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized
installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL
to select a custom installkernel script when running make:
make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install
With this patch we are now more consistent across
different architectures - they did not all support use
of CROSS_COMPILE.
The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs
to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change
just because we change toolchain.
The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch
that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built -
it would no longer be installable.
[Thanks to Peter for this hint]
This patch undos what Ian did in commit:
0f8e2d62fa04441cd12c08ce521e84e5bd3f8a46
("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")
The patch has been lightly tested on x86 - but all changes
looks obvious.

INSTALL_PATH specifies where to place the updated kernel and system map
images. Default is /boot, but you can set it to other values.
+INSTALLKERNEL
+--------------------------------------------------
+Install script called when using "make install".
+The default name is "installkernel".
+
+The script will be called with the following arguments:
+ $1 - kernel version
+ $2 - kernel image file
+ $3 - kernel map file
+ $4 - default install path (use root directory if blank)
+
+The implmentation of "make install" is architecture specific
+and it may differ from the above.
+
+INSTALLKERNEL is provided to enable the possibility to
+specify a custom installer when cross compiling a kernel.
