As log as grubby did its job with grub2, there is no issue.
If grubby is having a problem with grub2, using grub2-mkconfig should fix it.
More thoughts. Remember, Sam, that I can't boot into the new kernel so there might be an issue. (I just remembered that the laptop hung on shutdown after that update, forcing me to use the power button and that's very much not normal.)
I take it that you suggest getting rid of that file in /etc, re-running grub2-mkconfig and trying to boot again into the new kernel?
Can you boot into rescue mode from install media (don't forget to enable the network) and mount the filesystems?
chroot /mnt/sysimage ; then try another yum update see if a newer kernel yet will fix things.
