We will update the bug report ( http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=728 ) when the updated version is ready.

Where does one see which kernel version the release is intended for? I should add that I installed it from elrepo earlier today on a current computer, not some time ago... No error messages.
Try the following command on a computer you had kmod-jfs installed:
$ ls -l `find /lib/modules -name jfs.ko`
It will show where the module was installed (in the extra/ directory) and may show symbolic links to other kernel versions (if any) that are compatible.
In the case of the kmod-jfs package, there was a kABI breakage when going from el7.3 to el7.4. As a result, what was built against el7.3 was broken in el7.4. It has now been built against the el7.4 kernel. This one is not backward compatible with earlier (< 7.4) kernels.

I tried the above and this is the output:
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 51 Oct 26 17:56 /lib/modules/3.10.0-514.21.2. el7.x86_64/weak-updates/jfs/jfs.ko -> /lib/modules/3.10.0-514.el7. x86_64/extra/jfs/jfs.ko lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 51 Oct 26 17:56 /lib/modules/3.10.0-514.26.1. el7.x86_64/weak-updates/jfs/jfs.ko -> /lib/modules/3.10.0-514.el7. x86_64/extra/jfs/jfs.ko lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 51 Oct 26 17:56 /lib/modules/3.10.0-514.26.2. el7.x86_64/weak-updates/jfs/jfs.ko -> /lib/modules/3.10.0-514.el7. x86_64/extra/jfs/jfs.ko -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 302480 Apr 16 2017 /lib/modules/3.10.0-514.el7. x86_64/extra/jfs/jfs.ko
The output shows that the version of the installed kmod-jfs is for kernel-3.10.0-514.el7.x86_64 and is compatible with all -514 kernels (el7.3).
I also ran yum update again but it did not pick up kmod-jfs although it was
just updated. How long time does it typically take for an updated package to become available?
It is syncing to mirrors. It may show up any time between now and several hours later.
