You can set the direction of the RehearsalMark object:

   \override Score.RehearsalMark #'direction = #DOWN

You must then also change "ufermata" to "dfermata".  I didn't even 
realize that ufermata meant up fermata until I saw it underneath the 
staff, still pointed in the same direction as it would be above the 
staff. I tried "dfermata" for down fermata and it worked. :)

   \mark \markup { \musicglyph #"scripts.dfermata" }

This is the snippet that gave me the clues:
