This _does_not_work_ because 'installkernel' does not update the bootblocks. It should. Otherwise, 'installkernel' is not filling it's contract: it is not ensuring that the next boot uses the new kernel. An alternative: have installkernel link the new kernel file back to the old location, at least until 5.1. That way, either old or new boot blocks would boot the new kernel. (This may be the better approach all around; it leaves the downgrade option available for a little bit longer.)
