This is not getting me this new kernel. I am currently running test 4.4.51-201. When I first did a yum update with this testing-kernel.repo added (and the old testing I used for 4.4.51 removed), I got the warning: centos-kernel | 2.9 kB 00:00 Not using downloaded repomd.xml because it is older than what we have: Current : Sun Feb 26 09:04:27 2017 Downloaded: Thu Feb 16 01:10:20 2017 and then a list of 17 firmware modules to update; 15 iwl firmware and 2 linux-firmware rpms. So I ran a 'yum clean all'. The date warning went away, but still only the 17 firmware modules. No kernel updates.
