[PATCH] kernel.spec: adding --with firmware & --without vdso_install build options

Now that devel kernels rpms require the kernel-firmware rpm, it makes
sense to me that one should be able to build both of them at the 
same time. So this patch adds the "--with firmware" build option
which will allow kernel-firmware rpms to built with kernel rpms.

This patch also adds the "--without vdso_install" build option
which stop the VDSO binaries from being installed. This cuts
down the overall build time especially when you build over NFS
like I do..
