It isn't uncommon for a new kernel to break VirtualBox, requiring it to need to 
be updated.  Should Fedora hold back a newer kernel for third-party software 
they don't ship?  I don't think so.  I use the native hypervisor that has been 
part of the Linux kernel since 2007 which doesn't break because of kernel 
updates.  I realize VirtualBox has some features that KVM doesn't have and vice 
versa... but it isn't that difficult for a VirtualBox user to hold back on a 
kernel update until VirtualBox gets updated.  You'll get used to it.
