Currently the 40-dkms.install snippet is shipped to $(DESTDIR)$(KCONF)/install.d/40-dkms.install, but KCONF defaults to /etc/kernel. Unlike the postinst.d and prerm.d machinery kernel-install supports to have these files shipped in /usr/, which allows administrators to add superseding configuration in /etc/. It would therefore be helpful if the file could be shipped in /usr/ instead.

Install kernel-install drop-in to /usr/lib instead of /etc
7a1162f 
kernel-install supports picking configuration file from /usr
and that's where vendor-defaults should ship to. /etc is for
local modifications.

Partially fixes dell#343
Fixes dell#430
