There was a program installed which would not allow upgrades unless you removed kernels which were older than a certain level. It was not selinux, but a device manager program. do you have some very old kernels installed on your system still? If you do have some old kernels which you are not using, try to remove the older kernel versions that you are not using.
Disabling selinux does not sound like it would help. It sounds like you have an rpm database problem where selinux-policy-targeted is unhappy with the kernel which you want to install. This might be a bug or a snafu on your system.
