Both are typically present on x86 and x86_64 systems running oprofile
due to oprofile limitations.

While you can technically store the uncompressed kernel anywhere
storing it together with the bootable kernel (and its config, symbol
list, ...) is suggested in oprofile documentation and it is place no
worse than any other.
