I just tested the installkernel script on Ubuntu 20.04 + Focal Proposed
with linux-base 4.5ubuntu3.2.

I performed the following testing on a s390x z15 LPAR:

# 5.12.0-07600-g75079231a966.tar is a tar of the modules compiled on another 
system
% ls
5.12.0-07600-g75079231a966.tar  System.map  bzImage
% tar -xavf 5.12.0-07600-g75079231a966.tar -C /usr/
% installkernel 5.12.0-07600-g75079231a966 bzImage System.map /boot

After that with the previous linux-base version I see the following:
%  ls -la /boot
total 68556
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root     4096 Apr 27 12:56 .
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root     4096 Apr 27 08:33 ..

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root       24 Apr 27 08:34 vmlinuz.old -> 
vmlinuz-5.4.0-72-generic

Note the wrong initrd.img symlink still pointing at
initrd.img-5.4.0-72-generic

After the upate and performing the same steps again I get:

%  ls -la /boot

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root       24 Apr 27 13:03 vmlinuz.old ->

So this does NOT seem to be fixed. Do note that during the dpkg based
kernel install the symlink is updated correctly as can be seen by the
symlink after installing Proposed updates now pointing to
initrd.img-5.4.0-73-generic.
