Sorry for changing topic for a bit, but since I've been in this
situation you describe before, is it possible that you're hitting these:

 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=783851
 http://markmail.org/message/k6gdno6mf7geynnl

If yes, just running `grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg' should fix
this, and you'll be able to use the new kernel.

Unfortunately, for now, that has to be done all the time Fedora updates
the kernel, because their use of grubby right after that (instead of
grub2-mkconfig), does not play well with Xen. We're working on trying to
fix this.

If that is not the case, sorry for interrupting the discussion. If it
is, I wish I could have been of help. :-)

Regards,
Dario
