Since the error is:
strip:debian/linux-image-4.7.0-1-parisc64-smp/boot/vmlinux-4.7.0-1-parisc64-smp: File format not recognized
I think you would need something like -X$(IMAGE_FILE)

I think $(CROSS_COMPILE)objcopy expands to hppa64-linux-gnu-objcopy when packaging
the 64bit kernel. At least my patch worked which seems to indicate that.

Anyhow, I'm fine with any patch you agree on and which fixes the problem.
