The magic "don't delete the running kernel" can't be done with just a
config file.  Something has to detect which kernel version is running
and match it to an RPM, and then protect just that version of multiple
installed kernel RPMs.

I supposed you could do it external to yum/dnf with a boot-time script
that rewrites a config file to protect kernel-$(uname -r), but that may
not always work (it would have to handle things like kernel-PAE and
such).
