You need to make the changes in /etc/default/grub, and then update the
Grub configuration. If you make the changes in /boot they will be
overwritten the next time you update the kernel.

So,
1. Make the changes in /etc/default/grub
2. Run grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.conf (<--- only UEFI systems)

And that's it!
