[PATCH] .gitignore: drop Module.markers

[PATCH] .gitignore: drop Module.markers

[Jan Stancek]

commit fc5377668c3d ("tracing: Remove markers") deleted the marker code
and the modpost output. Follow-up commit 8723eaeff59a ("Kbuild: clean up
marker") removed it from clean and mrproper targets. Both are from 2009,
so the file is hopefully no longer in anyone's tree, drop it from
.gitignore as well.

Thanks!

Please look out for regression or issue reports or other follow up
comments, as they may result in the patch/series getting dropped or
reverted. Patches applied to an "unstable" branch are accepted pending
wider testing in -next and any post-commit review; they will generally
be moved to the main branch in a week if no issues are found.

Best regards,
