The kernel package does not obsolete the kernel-pae package I guess and therefore none of the package handling tools sees it as an update. So do an install of the kernel package from the dnf command line once and it will be automatically be updated in the future (but you will loose > 4GB support), or you will have to install a 64bit kernel-x86_64.
