Don't be. I suspect you have done a "yum groupinstall" and found that  
the default set of packages for that group includes kmod-gfs and kmod- 
gnbd which are kernel modules for the stock kernel, which is why they  
pull that in.

Nope, you just either have to:

Live with both kernels existing, do what you did before, then do "yum  
install kmod-gfs-xen kmod gnbd-xen" to add the kernel modules for your  
Xen kernel as well.

or

Don't use "yum groupinstall" use "yum install Global_File_System-en-US  
gfs-utils gnbd kmod-gfs-xen kmod-gnbd-xen lvm2-cluster" to get the  
same thing. (sneaky mode!)

The PAE kernel is also supported as well.
