The kmdl plugin has two modes that cover that:

o yum install: Only triggers kmdl coinstallation if a kernel will be
  installed in this transactions and only for this kernel

o yum update: Check for new available kmdls for already installed
  kernels

kmdls will by definition - be it a 3rd party or an ISV/ISH - be shipped
delayed. Maybe not for RHEL where selected partners get early access
to final bits to prepare their add-ons, but certainly for non-premioum
partners and for all Fedora land.

Therefore any plugin needs to be able to asyncronously fill the
gaps.
