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?

The warning from grubby can be due either to grubby choking on grub.cfg, old grub 1 config file, which is not needed any more, or if grubby can't figure out what to do with grub2. grubby, when told to do its thing, will check to see if either grub 1 or grub 2 is installed, and run through both of them.

It's not clear if your grubby warnings are due to the old grub 1 config, or the current grub 2 config. If it's grub 1, deleting grub.cfg will shut grubby up. If it's grub 2, I found that rerunning grub2-mkconfig generates a new grub 2 config file that will make grubby happy, going from that point on.
