U-Boot is basically completely unrelated to the kernel so there's no correlation there, it's basically a BIOS/firmware. Once a version of Fedora is released I don't tend to updated in a stable release so basically if you update it to the latest in the stable release you'll have the latest. If you upgrade your installs (as opposed to reinstalling) there will be a newer version at that point to move to. > Some boxes are Fedora 28 (still) some are CentOS 7.

I have no idea what the CentOS policy is on U-Boot, but we basically do one version per Fedora release and take it from there. > And replacing uboot is easy for me.
