Hi Michael,
I tried to do the same as you suggested, i want to apply only kernel upgrade to 
my servers, so i created a repository with the kernel pakcage URL and made a 
channel subscribed to it, but while running channel sync its throwing below 
error:-

Hello neeraj,

You can create custom channel and "clone" only specific packages from CentOS
to it. Then re-register your clients from origianl CentOS channel to the
custom and let them update from this channel.
