When the SPL was originally written Linux tracepoints were still
in their infancy. Therefore, an entire debugging subsystem was
added to facilite tracing which served us well for many years.
Now that Linux tracepoints have matured they provide all the
functionality of the previous tracing subsystem. Rather than
maintain parallel functionality it makes sense to fully adopt
tracepoints. Therefore, this patch retires the legacy debugging
infrastructure.
See zfsonlinux/zfs@bc9f413 for the tracepoint changes.

New versions of dkms clean up the build directory after installing.
It appears that this was always intended, but had rm -rf "/path/to/build/*"
(note the quotes), which prevented it from working.
Also, the build step is already installing stuff into the directory where
these files go, so installing our stuff there as part of build rather than
install makes sense.

The --with-linux and --with-linux-obj options must be specified
as part of the dkms build otherwise the package will be built
against the running kernel.

Refresh the existing RPM packaging to conform to the 'Fedora
Packaging Guidelines'. This includes adopting the kmods2
packaging standard which is used fod kmods distributed by
rpmfusion for Fedora/RHEL.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelineshttp://rpmfusion.org/Packaging/KernelModules/Kmods2
While the spec files have been entirely rewritten from a
user perspective the only major changes are:
* The Fedora packages now have a build dependency on the
rpmfusion repositories. The generic kmod packages also
have a new dependency on kmodtool-1.22 but it is bundled
with the source rpm so no additional packages are needed.
* The kernel binary module packages have been renamed from
spl-modules-* to kmod-spl-* as specificed by kmods2.
* The is now a common kmod-spl-devel-* package in addition
to the per-kernel devel packages. The common package
contains the development headers while the per-kernel
package contains kernel specific build products.
