Honestly either of those approaches are probably fine, or you can look into the versionlock yum plugin. Just depends on which method you prefer.

Currently I have an exclude in the yum.conf which causes them to be
rejected, but I'm wondering if creating a second channel without the
kernel patches would be the cleaner, more appropriate approach.  If so,
  How does one automate the updating of the channel so the packages are
excluded, or removed post update.

Or is there another way to approach this.
