Include kernel* in dnf.conf's exclude= line and kernel processing will be 
skipped,
allowing issues with kernel to be handled manually after the rest of the upgrade
is /complete/, or removing the exclude and then running an ordinary F42 upgrade.

When I've done 37>40 or 40>42 I didn't skip. Instead I did an upgrade to next
first, skipping kernel entirely, which I do for every upgrade, until ultimate 
was
otherwise complete. I always do kernel manually, because dnf's continual 
changing
of cache directory names obstructs preloading the cache with the kernel 
previously
downloaded for my many other local installation(s).
