I was kind of hoping that rpm would also be changed to ignore this, so I have not done anything about it.

With the cause coming from a change in rpmdev-bumpspec, I am guessing that kernel is not the only package to notice it, though we do use scripts calling it more than most I suppose. I may look into it, but from a tooling standpoint, we will likely end up changing a lot of scripts, so it is fairly low priority at the moment.
