Do you have dkms installed? 

I have F21 in a Vbox VM and, if memory serves me, it was pulled in when I installed dkms to have the Vbox video modules rebuilt when a new kernel was installed.  As a matter of fact, I see this in my yum.log....

Jan 22 09:21:58 Installed: kernel-debug-devel-3.17.8-300.fc21.x86_64
Jan 22 09:21:59 Installed: dkms-2.2.0.3-28.git.7c3e7c5.fc21.noarch
