The latter is where Fedora kernel rpms put it (this places it in the
kernel-devel subpackage, the one required for compiling loadable modules).
The logic was that Module.symvers is there also, and--at least at the
time--markers were another thing used only in building a kernel module, so
seemed similar.  If it's desireable to standardize on one of the other
locations as preferable, we can certainly change the Fedora packaging
however is most useful.
