Actually the kernel is in its own separate partition, not in initfs but the result is same, it is not stored in rootfs where all system packages and personal stuff lies. Sorry for nitpicking :-)

There are five partitions in internal flash - bootloader, config, kernel, initfs, rootfs (/dev/mtd0,1,...,4). Only rootfs, the biggest (~250 out of 256MB) one is interesting to most users. Also BTW, only the rootfs can be moved to mmc card.
