I seem to recall I did this once by doing an
rpm --justdb -e kernel<whatever>

That removes the info that the kernel exists from
the rpm database, but leaves the files.

I'm not absolutely positive that works, just a
dim memory :-).

It should work.  I know that DNF is fussier about changes to the rpmdb,
but I don't know what it would do.  If I ever want to be able to be
able to remove those kernels, I should first repackage them (all 4
RPMs of each), so I can re-install and remove them.
