Those are debug builds.
They aren't actually.
It looks like something in the buildroot stopped stripping the kernel
modules between rc7.git0 and rc7.git1. Both elf-utils and binutils
changed, so maybe something in there. The same SRPM build on F22 has
the smaller size.
I haven't looked into it more than that. If someone wants to poke at
this and figure out what broke, that would be excellent. From a
kernel package perspective, there isn't anything that we did that
should cause this change in behavior that I'm aware of.
