Public bug reported:

The debs are close to the same size:

mwhudson@ringil:~/Downloads$ ls -l 
linux-image-4.15.0-1030-raspi2_4.15.0-1030.32_arm64.deb 
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mwhudson mwhudson 5398652 Dec 12 10:42 
linux-image-4.15.0-1030-raspi2_4.15.0-1030.32_arm64.deb
mwhudson@ringil:~/Downloads$ ls -l 
linux-image-4.15.0-1030-raspi2_4.15.0-1030.32_armhf.deb 
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mwhudson mwhudson 6640960 Dec 12 10:42 
linux-image-4.15.0-1030-raspi2_4.15.0-1030.32_armhf.deb

But the vmlinuz on arm64 is several times larger:

$ dpkg-deb -c linux-image-4.15.0-1030-raspi2_4.15.0-1030.32_armhf.deb 
-rw------- root/root   6633048 2018-12-07 06:38 
./boot/vmlinuz-4.15.0-1030-raspi2
$ dpkg-deb -c linux-image-4.15.0-1030-raspi2_4.15.0-1030.32_arm64.deb 
-rw------- root/root  23914504 2018-12-07 06:38 
./boot/vmlinuz-4.15.0-1030-raspi2

This forced us to make the boot partition larger for the raspi3 b+ arm64
image we made.
